Synopsis:

This book showcases cutting-edge research papers from the 10th International Conference on Research into Design (ICoRD 2025) – the largest in India in this area – written by eminent researchers from across the world on design processes, technologies, methods and tools, and their impact on innovation.

This tenth edition of this biennial conference delves into the multifaceted nature of design, showcasing cutting-edge research and fostering collaboration. It aims to showcase cutting-edge research about design to the stakeholders; aid the ongoing process of developing and extending the collective vision through emerging research challenges and questions; and provide a platform for interaction, collaboration and development of the community in order for it to take up the challenges to realize the vision.

The contemporary world is in the midst of significant shifts, encompassing everything from climate change to the rapid advancements in Artificial Intelligence. These transformations impact the fabric of everyday human lives and society as a whole. In this context, design emerges as a crucial player, offering a pivotal role in navigating these changes to foster a balanced and just world.

This conference edition, therefore has the theme of 'Responsible and Resilient Design for Society', underscoring the importance of adopting approaches that contribute to building a resilient society while acknowledging the responsibilities that come with being designers and researchers.

The book will be of interest to researchers, professionals and entrepreneurs working in the areas on industrial design, manufacturing, consumer goods, and industrial management who are interested in the new and emerging methods and tools for design of new products, systems and services.
