Building and thinking the habitability of a common. Reflections onthe notion of useness in the desing project

language: french

publication date: October 2019

abstract: Our collective proposal seeks to promote usage rather than user. This reflection, conducted by the prism of anthropology, is committed against an objective, modeling and reductive vision of the user as it has developed in recent years in certain approaches of the project in design. The text relies on the conduct, observation and study of a concrete situation of design in order to show the interest of thinking and planning the project in a sensitive relationship of association and mediation (and not strictly utilitaristic) between human and non-human actants. It is also a question of emphasizing the practical and political implications of the uses in the manufacture of the common.
