Reconceptualising stakeholders for the management of distributed value creation networks through open design‐led businesses

2022-10
Openly shared design knowledge and open-to-participate design processes present potential for democratising innovation through diffuse value creation networks that can diverge into different directions and design outcomes. This potential mostly concretises through the distributed production paradigm that localises production, closes material loops and empowers communities to meet their specific needs. This paper argues that there is a need for formalising truly alternative ways of doing open design-led businesses that can establish distributed value creation networks. In an attempt to enable and facilitate envisioning such alternatives, this paper presents a novel conceptualisation of stakeholders and framing of their ever-shifting roles and responsibilities in complex value creation networks suggested by distributed production through a systematic literature review of 131 journal articles at the intersection of open design, distributed production and business models. The analysis revealed two main categories of stakeholders namely value-creation-for-self and value-creation-for-others, with a total of six sub-categories presenting varying capacities to participate in networked value creation processes. The article concludes with a discussion on how this conceptualisation can enable envisioning novel, open design-led business models in terms of collaborative value creation, managing distributed value networks and a layered approach to design and value offerings

The Role of Mathematics in the Design Process Under the Influence of Computational and Design Technologies
Sorguç, Arzu (null; 2006-06-07)
In the design process today, the use of computational and information technologies demands a new way of thinking: “algorithmic thinking“. The first generation of computera-aided design tools have been replaced by highly sophisticated design tools used not only in design but also in construction and product life. These revolutionary step consists in designing directly in 3-D instead of designing by sections and planes. But are computers and new technologies really employed in design process or simply as a ne...
Repositioning moving image in computational design education
Kavakoğlu Akçay, Ayşegül; Sorguç, Arzu; Department of Architecture (2015)
The boundaries between science, art and design have begun to disappear with the developments in computational technologies particularly in the 21st century. Along with this convergence via computational technologies, architecture and design adapt new design tools and methods, which affected the design process at the first glance. The circumstances of these adaptations influenced both theory and praxis in architecture and design by resulting in paradigmatic shifts in which the meaning of design tools evolved...
An Interactive computational design approach for creating architectural topographiesi
Ongun, Gökhan; Mennan, Zeynep; Department of Architecture (2013)
The research aims at developing a digital environment for understanding and analyzing natural forces and designing according to the simultaneous feedback given by omputational tools. The thesis is an investigation into the concept of interactivity between the designer and computer through the use of computational fluid dynamic tools in a local context of Eastern Netherlands Coast, in response to the already dynamic natural fluid like elements such as air, coastal currents and sand particles. The behavior of...
