Dear Stuart,
> I wondered whether anyone here had any references to any discussions about the term "design space".
Two recent dissertations deal extensively with the theme of "design space" from a design perspective:
Bo Westerlund's dissertations "Design Space Exploration – co-operative creation of proposals for desired interactions with future artefacts"
http://www.bowesterlund.se/thesis.html
pdf: http://kth.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:241661/FULLTEXT02.pdf
Andrea Botero's dissertation "Expanding design space(s) : design in communal endeavours"
https://aaltodoc.aalto.fi/handle/123456789/11261
pdf: https://aaltodoc.aalto.fi/bitstream/handle/123456789/11261/isbn9789526051741.pdf?sequence=1
Here is also a paper by Andrea, myself and Sanna Marttila about the theme:
https://www.academia.edu/883993/Expanding_Design_Space_Design-In-Use_Activities_and_Strategies
pdf: http://www.designresearchsociety.org/docs-procs/DRS2010/PDF/018.pdf
These have several useful additional references for you.
cheers, Kari-Hans
