• design is a conversation between the materials and the designer. [135]
• appreciations: things you notice in the materials (the noticing of an emergent property, e.g.) [138]
• design communities can be defined in terms of having similar appreciations. [139]
• Move: a transformation to the design in the medium.
• move experiment: making a move and seeing the results.
• Goals of the design process change as a result of appreciations during design.
• Appreciations in the new figure gives people access to otherwise inaccessible parts of the appreciative system. [140]
• If people try to use all the constraints at the beginning of design that they end up having at the end, the task would seem overwhelming. [143]
• Emergent properties in the design medium. [148] [155]
• Design studies cannot ignore that designers interact with a medium. [154]
• The move is the basic unit of the design process.
