Hello all,
Sorry to interrupt your interesting 'out of step 2' discussion.
But here's my question.
I'm interested in how designers use narratives in design meetings.
Not for one specific design discipline but hopefully for a wider range
of design areas.
So far, I've managed to observe three design projects.
Each from different design discipline such as retail design, and brand
identity design,
The number of meetings I attended were 14, but after taking out
inappropriate bits, 7 meetings were chosen for analysis.
And within these meetings, 28 narratives were identified.
I am not sure if I've got enough data to make general comments on how .
When I read research papers, some research results are based on a single
project or even one design meeting.
However, for a PhD level, perhaps I should have conducted more case
studies to make it valid?
Could you recommend any paper or books that discuss this issue?
I read Silverman's book on qualitative data and Sarantakos' book on
social research but they didn't give me a firm idea on this case.
Many thanks for your help. Good luck with your research!
Best wishes,
EK
