The thing that’s missing, from our research, and in design research in general, is the sense of building on earlier work. As a field, design research is good at addressing new problems. It’s not good at drawing together old threads to build new ones. Perhaps, as one session at the conference showed, there aren’t enough (or haven’t been enough) journals in the field to provide that deep repository of prior knowledge. Perhaps we just don’t read enough.
