Co-creation and the new landscapes of design

Designers have been moving increasingly closer to the future users of what they design and the next new thing in the changing landscape of design research has become co-designing with your users. But co-designing is actually not new at all, having taken distinctly different paths in the US and in Europe. The evolution in design…

This is not only a shift from work-oriented productive activities to leisure and pleasurable engagements, but also a new milieu for production and ‘innovation’. What ‘democratic innovation’ entails is often currently defined by…

Per-Anders Hillgren, Anna Seravalli, Anders Emilson · 1 Sep 2011

During the past five years design has been recognised as a powerful innovation driver. Design methods and tools have also been applied in new fields. One of them is social innovation, which is aimed at developing new ideas and solutions in response to social needs. While different initiatives have demonstrated how design can be a…

CoDesign template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the CoDesign format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the CoDesign template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Taylor & Francis format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does CoDesign use?
CoDesign uses Author–year (Chicago, T&F) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, Ada, Ben Jones, and Cara Lee. 2023. "A Representative Article Title." CoDesign 12 (3): 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to CoDesign?
No. DocuGuru generates the interact LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Taylor & Francis-ready CoDesign document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the CoDesign template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the CoDesign format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
