PROCEEDINGS
At RTD 2017 we present work from researcher-practitioners documenting research through design projects, including descriptions of methods, processes and insights emerging from inquiry. The RTD 2017 Proceedings comprise visual papers supporting the presentation of artefacts in a curated exhibition. The visual papers are published and archived through Figshare, an online archival repository, on the RTD 2017 website. These exhibits and papers accompany presentations of ‘research through design’ in the Rooms of Interest at the conference.
Below we list the RTD 2017 proceedings, organised as per the conference schedule with individual paper downloads and links to the archive on FigShare. You can also download an RTD 2017 Companion booklet here.
