http://ijdst.europia.org/index.php/ijdst <p>The International Journal of Design Sciences and Technology is an independent and open platform for disseminating design knowledge. The design of new products leads to solve problems with solutions that are still partial, using tools and methods that are still rudimentary. Design is applied in extremely varied fields and involves numerous agents during the entire process of elaboration and realisation. The International Journal of Design Sciences and Technology is a multidisciplinary forum dealing with all facets and fields of design. It endeavours to provide a framework with which to support debates on different social, economic, political, historical, pedagogical, philosophical, scientific and technological issues surrounding design and their implications for both professional and educational design environments. The focus is on both general as well as specific design issues, at the level of design ideas, experiments and applications.</p> <p>IJDST has been published since 1991 by Europia (<a href="https://portal.issn.org/resource/ISSN/1630-7267">ISSN: 1630-7267</a>). It has been accredited, since 2016, by the <em><span class="st">Agence d'évaluation de la recherche et de l'enseignement supérieur</span></em> (AERES, French Agency for the Evaluation of Research and Higher Education) and by the <em>Conseil national des universités 71e section</em> (CNU71, French National Council of Universities, section 71: Communication and Information Sciences).</p> Europia en-US International Journal of Design Sciences & Technology 1630-7267 http://ijdst.europia.org/index.php/ijdst/article/view/111 <p>In this article, rather than focusing on the limits of nID (non Intentionnel Design), we propose a more epistemological questioning aimed at redefining the perimeter of the concept of intentionality in the creative process of architectural and urban planning projects. Drawing on a phenomenological approach, we aim to demonstrate that intentionality is inherent in every act of architectural design, and that even when the design is the result of a certain serendipity (arising from the use and practices of urban spaces), different levels of intentionality can be detected. This postulate, which we take as the starting point for our thinking, may seem provocative, since it runs counter to the direction advocated by the symposium. However, it is based on Le Corbusier's famous phrase, “The curved street is the donkey's path, the straight street the man's path” .</p> <p>To underpin our argument, we develop the article in three stages: first, we introduce a few definitional notions around intentionality drawn from the literature, so as to mobilize them conceptually in the exercise of architectural and urban design. Finally, we conclude with a comparative analysis of project activity in contrasting cases, and the different actionist postures and interpretative systems induced.</p> Patrizia Laudati Hafida Boulekbache-Mazouz ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2025-06-03 2025-06-03 26 1 http://ijdst.europia.org/index.php/ijdst/article/view/112 <p>The impossibility of modeling a future experience , due to its singular, subjective and unintentional character, leads us in this research to question what is "designable". With this research problem, we will empirically collect data from a creativity session on the experiences of various runners. The analysis of this data will lead, in an interpretative logic, to the elaboration of a systemic and dynamic conceptual model of the "designable" dimensions in a future experience.</p> Smail Khainnar Meï Menassel Savreux ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2025-06-03 2025-06-03 26 1
