| Abstract: | Design is about creating the 'real' world around us. Real life is complex, dynamic and uncertain. Truth is difficult enough to know, even with the best science, but 'reality', the domain of human experience, can be overwhelmingly paralyzing and beyond comprehension or understanding. Careful, accurate description, concomitant with clear explanation, is necessary but not sufficient in the quest for enough understanding to allow wise decisions to be made. The value of judgement is that it allows individuals to overcome their paralysis and engage with the messy complexity of life in a way that, when done well, can bring function, beauty, and meaning to human existence. In this paper the authors will examine judgement, particularly design judgement. |
