Abstract

This paper identifies three different perspectives on the relationship between design and innovation and explains implication of these different world-views of the interrelations between innovation and design.
The study is based on empirical data from a series of semi-structured expert interviews. Conceptual clustering is used to analyse and order information according to concepts or variables from within the data. The cognitive maps identified are validated through the comments of some of the same experts.
The study presents three cognitive maps and respective world-views explaining how the design and innovation field are related and under which dimensions they differ. The paper draws preliminary conclusions on the implications of the different world- views on the innovation process.
With the growing importance of the design approach in innovation e.g. design thinking, a clear conception of the interrelation becomes increasingly important. This paper seeks to clarify this interrelation and discuss how design is used in innovation.
