Abstract

Peirce, founder of pragmatism, developed a new sense of aesthetics focused on design. He reimagined aesthetics in a chain of “normative sciences” that links the design of means to function and function to good ends. Peirce realized that means-end reasoning is amoral and needs ethical guidance. He thought, like Aristotle and Mill, that the fix would be finding a higher end that was both good and desirous and could be used as a moral test for specific ends and means. The discovery of this end would be the result of inquiry, but he realized that inquiry itself had normative constraints that functions as a higher end. I show how these normative constraints can be applied to the study of design.

查尔斯-皮尔斯的新美学：好的设计

实用主义创始人皮尔斯提出了一种以设计为核心的新美学。他在一连串的 "规范科学 "中重新构想美学，将设计手段与功能和功能与良好目的联系起来。皮尔斯意识到，手段-目的推理是非道德的，需要伦理的指导。他认为，与亚里士多德和密尔一样，解决问题的办法是找到一个更高的目的，这个目的既是好的，也是人们所渴望的，可以作为对具体目的和手段的道德检验标准。对这一目的的发现将是探究的结果，但他意识到，探究本身具有作为更高目的的规范性约束。我将展示如何将这些规范性约束应用于设计研究。

期刊介绍： Design Studies is a leading international academic journal focused on developing understanding of design processes. It studies design activity across all domains of application, including engineering and product design, architectural and urban design, computer artefacts and systems design. It therefore provides an interdisciplinary forum for the analysis, development and discussion of fundamental aspects of design activity, from cognition and methodology to values and philosophy. Design Studies publishes work that is concerned with the process of designing, and is relevant to a broad audience of researchers, teachers and practitioners. We welcome original, scientific and scholarly research papers reporting studies concerned with the process of designing in all its many fields, or furthering the development and application of new knowledge relating to design process. Papers should be written to be intelligible and pertinent to a wide range of readership across different design domains. To be relevant for this journal, a paper has to offer something that gives new insight into or knowledge about the design process, or assists new development of the processes of designing.
