These complex networked problem situations often cannot be tackled from a single-discipline perspective, and thus transdisciplinary innovation – that is, innovation across and between disciplinary fields – is becoming more important. But how can we achieve innovation in those in-between spaces, when all of our knowledge and established approaches are held within the disciplines? In this article, we look beyond the limiting confines of traditional disciplines by seeing them as collections of smaller units of action: practices. After a foray into the anatomy of practices, we discuss how a design-based approach to transdisciplinary thinking creates a framework for the mixing of practices, articulating new insights and creating new possibilities for action in the space between the established professions. %B Technology Innovation Management Review %I Talent First Network %C Ottawa %V 8 %P 60-65 %8 08/2018 %G eng %U https://timreview.ca/article/1179 %N 8 %1 University of Technology Sydney Kees Dorst was trained as an Industrial Design Engineer at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands.
