This site is intended to chronicle Alex Wright’s work in progress on his doctoral dissertation at Carnegie Mellon School of Design.
My research focuses on the obstacles that UX practitioners encounter in incorporating long-term perspectives into their work, exploring a series of strategies and interventions to help them redirect their practices towards more sustainable long-term outcomes.
This work aligns closely with the overall research goals of Transition Design, and is intended to mark a contribution towards our understanding of how these emerging frameworks might enable working designers to evolve their design practices.
