Solid knowledge: notes on the nature of knowledge embedded in designed artefacts

    Publications: Contribution to journalJournal articleResearchpeer-review

    Abstract

    The great icons of industrial and architectural design are cornerstones of our material culture. They are referred to again and again in education, research and cultural debate, and as such they have become nodal points of human discourse. The knowledge embedded in such artefacts has often been referred to as ‘silent knowledge’.
