L'approche par la typification dans les formations en design

Abstract

This text intends to defend the learning of the process of conception and concretization in design education, particularly at the university because of its potential to instruct new socio-industrial dialogues. By pointing to the principles of the typification inherited from the Staatliches Bauhaus, we are interested in their revival through the probabilistic conception of systems taught at the Hochschule für Gestaltung (HfG) Ulm, a few decades later. The reading that we propose of this double heritage allows us, consequently, to consider the ecological, economic, social and technical (ecosociotechnical) approach to types based on the challenge of industrial sustainability.
