Workshop description: "People-centered design", "User-centered design", "Human-centered design": these are common keywords and acronyms often used in circles interested in innovation. These approaches start from the idea that design should be on a certain understanding of how people behave. This workshop will address the ways one can go beyond these notions and engage the participants in discussing how creative workers can benefit from understanding practitioners with less standard techniques.

The workshop is based on the results of a study geared towards exploring how interaction designers deal with field research.
