The pro-duce of design

Abstract

The Produce of Design is developed supported in two M. Heidegger’s works: The question about technique and Construct, to inhabit, to think. In the first one, “technique” is addressed as means to an end in search of the essence of production; in the second text, the approach to the substance of building and inhabiting are directed towards producing. This, in order to achieve an approach to philosophy of design to support its development in three key areas: 1) Design as a process; 2) Design as a practice noticed by the context; and 3) Design as an active but differentiated value through the artifact. This approach identifies today’s humanistic spirit of design in.
