The
collaborative turn:
Challenges and limits on the
construction of a common
the social actors for whom we design take on the role of co-designers
(Halse et al., 2010), now sharing design activity with designers-
mediators. Diffuse designers (Manzini, 2015) or organic designers
(Noronha, 2017) are labels for such social actors who take active roles in
the process of creating solutions for and giving meanings to the
problems of their own existence in the world, without having
specialised training in design. They are people who get involved in the
activity of discussing and seeking alternatives to meeting specific
needs, future desires, and thus, engage in active citizenship through
collaboration (Manzini, 2015; Halse et al., 2010) (p. 127).
