In my opinion, seminal texts that would be a good starting point for you
are:
Alexander, Christopher, Notes on the Synthesis of Form, 1964
Cross, Nigel, Engineering Design Methods, 1994 (2nd edition)
Rowe, Peter, G., Design Thinking, 1991
Ullman, David, G., The Mechanical Design Process, 1992
Jones, John Chris, Design Methods, 1992 (2nd edition)
I found, and still find, these texts very helful in my 'design research'
work.
Regards,
Paul

literature on Design Research and how it is similar/different from
Market Research?
