The goal of DESIGN Conference is to bring together researchers and practitioners who have worked on or thought about engineering and industrial design from a variety of perspectives, disciplines, and fields: engineering, aesthetics, ergonomics, psychology, sociology and the like. Participants of DESIGN conferences contributed to the understanding of design building relationships across multidisciplinary design domains including engineering and product development, innovation, management, complexity, human behaviour and system design. DESIGN conference is a biannual event with robust academic and industrial attendance presenting state-of-the-art research projects.

By tradition DESIGN conference is a forum for discussion and further development of all aspects of design knowledge from cognition and methodology to methods and philosophy, from research theory to practice. The DESIGN conference programme offers broad exchange possibilities to researchers and practitioners, strategic decision makers, managers, design and engineering professionals, national or regional agencies or governmental bodies.
