I've skimed the book 'Design Nior' and 'Hertizian Tales', and I also searched on the Internet, now I get to know what is critical design and who does it. But still confused about how can I generate my idea in a critical design way and how can I make my design works critically.
Today I wrote an abstract of my research paper, I decided to explore how can graphic design be involved into critical design, in another word, how to do a critical graphic design. My idea came from my raw understanding of critical design. When read or searched on the Internet, I found it almost all the critical design is expressed by the way of product design, interaction and electronic product, and I couldn't find any critical design expressing in a graphic design way. This made me alittle surprised, because graphic design - a very board and practical design field which can be expressed in almost any ways, but why there is no information about critical graphic design, this is really a sas thing. As a graphic designer and a fan of graphic design, I decided to explore the way that graphic design might be translated in critical design. Actually in my opinion any forms of design can be translated into critical design such as enviornment design, interior design, texile design, even fashion design. So why don't I go through the multi-discipline and have a look how every kinds of design were translated into critical design, and how they work, in order to light up my idea in my project.
I think maybe there are some designers have adopted graphic design in the critical design, but I don't know yet, so I need to do more researches and literature review on my specific problem. Hope I can create a new fads of critical design.
