Shaping Understanding: An Iterative Approach

This proposal interprets the conference theme ‘Cycles’ through a teaching-driven lens, framing cycles as a fundamental design principle and as part of a framework for integrating complexity and scientific knowledge in design education.

The presentation examines a selection of interdisciplinary projects that promote collaboration between the design and the scientific community. To support these objectives at both individual and group levels, a concentric–cyclical design model was developed, structured around levels of analysis, each subdivided into iterative work phases.

Through its modular structure and grounding in a scientific approach to information design, the model balances scientific accuracy with compelling visual narratives, enabling future designers to visualize scientific data with confidence while fostering ethical awareness and a critical understanding of the designer’s role.
