Stuart G Bailey combines experience in science, technology and design practices together into one multidisciplinary design approach. His research practice at GSA considers complementary areas within product design, product design engineering and service design: specifically how organisations engage with design processes to innovate products and services; and the roles and contributions of non-design-trained designers of services in relation to those who are design-trained. His research investigates the role of the designer and the act of designing within organisations. In particular, the work explores how design visualisation and design narrative empower innovation and implementation within an organisation by facilitating collaboration and enabling shared decision-making. Stuart's current research draws upon previous industry experience, academic teaching in design and services and research within service organisations to explore the synergies between product service system design thinking and design for a circular economy. This research explores how organisations engage with circularity thinking to innovate products and services within a circular product-service system to foster sustainable innovation in a Circular Economy. The impact of this work would be to support development of circular product-service system solutions within the Scottish economy and beyond. Stuart’s research-teaching linkages are evidenced in his undergrad and postgrad teaching through projects where students are encouraged to see their design practice in the context of design narratives and how this benefits their design process and communication: a creative dialogue with themselves, colleagues, clients, organisations, producers, manufactures and public audiences.
