Dear Terry,
Foundational theories about how design activity is undertaken would seem to me to fall under either phenomenology and/or phenomenography.
That is, the identity structures open to designers would be revealed in the process of designing.
Whether such information would be of general use at a theoretical level to people wishing to design is something we would need to find out.
cheers

Hi Keith,
And how would you see it for researchers building foundational theories
about how design activity is undertaken at the level of internal processes
of creativity and judgments about partial design possibilities?
