Content Introduction

In the comparatively brief history of design, we've seen how designers adapt to new paradigms. Now, as we face the new paradigm of digital transformation including AI, all stakeholders in design must revisit these lessons to usher in the next phase of design evolution. This new era of design offers many possibilities, but also poses significant risks of rendering existing disciplines obsolete. However, the obsolescence of some dated design practices is inevitable, and our focus should be on exploring new design methodologies and processes, rather than clinging to the old ones.

In recent decades, 'experience' has been a leading keyword in design education, research, and practice. But the user experience today is markedly different from the past. Nowadays, users interact with complex systems rather than a single product, and their engagement extends beyond clicks to actual interactions.
In this presentation, speculative ideas about the future of design education and research are explored through a comparative review. This review examines changes to major components such as design methods, processes, and users across past design paradigms. Lastly, a case study of the new design curriculum at the School of Design at Hong Kong Polytechnic University is introduced.
