Design science

Design science refers to a scientific, i.e. rational and systematic, approach to designing. An early concept of design science was introduced in 1957 by R. Buckminster Fuller[1][2] who defined it as a systematic form of designing[3] which he applied especially in innovative engineering design. The concept has been more broadly defined by the Design Science journal[4] as “quantitative and qualitative research in the creation of artifacts and systems, and their embedding in our physical, virtual, psychological, economic, and social environment”.
