An interesting visual taxonomy for Design History as represented by
'cultural heritage'. This may be useful for design researchers arbitraging
across fields. The reference was from ACM

Abstract
"In this article we present a general classification of the different
approaches that might be employed to constitute a visual representation of a
cultural heritage item, including the ones featuring the use of traditional
tools as the ones exhibiting the inclusion of modern 2D and 3D digital
technologies. In order to establish a coherent taxonomy, specific elements
characterizing such approaches will be discussed and employed to assist the
definition of a general conceptual framework that will enable the
classification of the possible design choices according to their specific
characteristics. Finally, a selection of modeling and simulation techniques
which are specifically related to the creation process underlying the
virtual representation of heritage items by means of modern visualization
technologies will be explored alongside the main areas of preferences linked
to the major actors active in the cultural heritage field."
