Prof. Annette Diefenthaler's research focuses on the value of non-linear approaches to problems: Her work experiments with the development of metrics to understand progress and results such approaches create. This is based on the hypothesis that design has become increasingly formulaic, limiting the space for unknowns and creative exploration. With these pursuits, she aims to expand beyond primarily economic metrics such as stakeholder value and revenue, to develop a sophisticated understanding of the social and regenerative impact of design.
