About
Language is such a key role in design fields wether it is briefing a new case or describing one’s outcome. Specific terminologies are the cornerstone our way of narrating. To intake classifications or to invent. Through out my practical design journey I am troubled by terminologies, namely the struggle with anchoring down to a set word to describe my practice. I am, through my own working processes, finding the subtle line between letting the words guide my work and letting them frame it down. The hegemony of words and its meaning are to be shaped by current societal and economical shifts. It is an ever growing calibration process that needs constant revisit and this leads to my research inquiry that there is something fundamentally misleading in our practical languages and I intend to devote my research about it.
