Abstract

This paper identifies similarities and differences between incrementalism and design problem solving. The discussion consists of two parts: a theoretical part and two case vignettes. In the theoretical part, the paper examines the six components of Lindblom's strategy of disjointed incrementalism in the literature on the design process and product development, and identifies the common themes. The case vignettes provide examples of “muddling through” moments in the practice of design projects. The paper concludes with suggestions for further research.
