Abstract

This paper offers an advanced conceptualization of what the future of design residencies in museums could look like. It details two co-design workshops devised to engage with people who would be most affected by a new residency model: one was held with past residents and members of staff at the Design Museum in London; the other was held as an exploratory workshop with a diverse group of designers from or based in Scotland, together with members of staff from V&A Dundee. For both, the overall aim is the same: that the groups use human-centred design methods to ideate collective solutions for a future residency. By combining the propositions from these co-design workshops possible solutions (i.e. concept development) are further developed and described with emphasis given to how this can have wider relevance in design management and affiliated research.
