Excerpt

The title of the editorial has two meanings, the first of which is a ‘science of designing’—the verb; to be sure I focus on the process of designing and not anything else. Now I can ask:
Is designing a science? Is designing a scientific activity? Is there a science of designing? Would it be one science or many?

Fußnoten
1
In contrast, the two terms are clearly equated in an introduction to Simon’s paper by Diani (1988): “Many attempts have been aimed at creating a scientific environment for design or, to put it bluntly, to create a science of design, a design science.”

The choice of title for Hawkins’ book—the grand design—is very revealing.
