About the Journal

The aim of the Journal of Design Intelligence is to provide a platform for cutting-edge research, thought leadership, and practical insights that expand the boundaries of design through the application of intelligent systems. The journal will focus on both theoretical frameworks and practical solutions, offering a space for emerging ideas and methodologies in the evolving design landscape. It strives to bridge the gap between human-centered design and the technological advancements driving future innovations, including the emergence of smart services and the evolving landscape of Industry 5.0.
