Research Folios

This collection of Research Folios represents some of the research through practice projects developed by academic staff in the Centre for Cultural Ecologies in Art, Design and Architecture and Innovative Design Lab.

The Research Folios present a rich and diverse range of approaches to practice research across contemporary art, architecture, product design, speculative design, textiles and photography.

Each folio can be downloaded providing details of each project, including the core research context, research methods and processes and research outcomes and dissemination.

The intention for this collection is to show the many ways in which research in the contexts of art, design and architecture may be realised. As an online and open access platform it is freely available to all.
