The Design Research approach draws knowledge and methods from both natural and social sciences, yet is distinct from both.

The approach is Change Oriented:

• Guided by a clear and explicit value position
• Focused on complex problems in an authentic environment
• Recognizes the researcher's involvement in the research arena, and the partnership with other actors in the research arena
• Driven by and committed to theory and practice simultaneously
