The main purpose of the series Design vocabularies is to contribute to understanding and
prevalence of the conceptual apparatus in design. Language is a vital part of human connection.
Vocabularies lays the foundation for both the construction and communication of knowledge.
It allows us to share our ideas, thoughts, and experiences with others.

Design vocabularies manifest themselves in three ways. First, as 'words' that designers may
express themselves with. Second, as ‘more-than-words’ like for example diagrams, sketches,
mock-up, models, and other ways in which designers articulate their ideas.Thirdly, a design
vocabulary is a ‘horizon’ or a frame within which the designer thinks and works. The series
ask of each of its contributors to unearth how their theme connects to these three different
forms of vocabulary practice.
