DISCURSIVE DESIGN focuses on issues pertinent to values, ideals, and/or certain messages of a designer to the consumers or society in general. The object of discursive design is somewhat similar to those of artworks albeit one fundamental difference---objects of design must serve utilitarian purpose not just merely aesthetic. Discursive design opens room for breakthrough, ideological, and even controversial discussions or debates on object of design as an artwork.
