Dear Terry,
I don't think Jurgen said he wants to DEFINE design as discourse. Rather, as Juris points out, it is useful to think about how the concept of design might operate discursively.
Why would this not be helpful?
Regards,
Amanda

Dear Jurgen,
There are many situations and contexts in design theory and design research
in which the idea of design as a discourse are irrelevant, a fallacious
diversion and not helpful.
Why do you want to define design as discourse?
Best regards,
Terry
