Abstract

Science and design have a special connection build up through centuries. The present paper highlights the most relevant examples confirming the hypothesis of design-science collaboration and looks at identifying the role of design in this collaboration. Design, and especially graphic design, is a science in itself. Its principles, its process, strategies, methodologies and techniques can be an unlimited source of improvement to scientific progress. Today, design is both, a tool for a wider understanding of sciences and a contributor to scientific achievements, through its aspects of innovation, usercenteredness, functionality focused aesthetics, problem-solving and contextual awareness
