Abstract
Telos, practical wisdom embodies the useful and the beautiful.What are the relations between philosophy of design and philosophy at large? Philosophy of design can draw on insights from other fields of philosophy, like ancient Greek and Chinese philosophy. Can these ancient philosophies also offer a new insight to a more general philosophy of design? Moreover, can results from the philosophy of design be put to use in contemporary design practice, by leading us towards better artefacts, better design methods and, especially, better ethics for the creation of a more just society?
