We are always looking for new reviewers. If you are interested and qualified, please register as a reviewer at our web page. If you have any queries please contact us. Please subscribe to notifications of new publications at www.FormAkademisk.org. Registration is not required in order to read Form Akademisk though. We view the concept of design as a generic term in line with Herbert Simon, who says that ‘Everyone designs who devises courses of action aimed at changing existing situations into preferred ones’ (Simon, 1969, p. 55). This broad approach enables research with varying approaches to design to be brought together into one all-encompassing community, including object design, interaction design, architecture, landscape architecture and design education from kindergarten to the doctoral level. The journal wishes to promote design and design education from a perspective of sustainability. This does not mean that the journal excludes work from other perspectives. On the contrary, it is open to a wide range of topics, methods and perspectives. This breadth of thought also exemplifies the expectations of the journal’s readers, and those submitting contributions to the journal should keep this community in mind. However, while many schools of thought are embraced, contributions are expected to be of high academic quality and will be submitted to a rigorous, systematic peer-review process. The journal is aimed at those involved in design research as defined by the higher education system in Norway and the Nordic countries. Our purpose is to present cutting-edge scientific insight in a form that is accessible to all who might benefit from this information. We also aim to bring new life to this field of research by providing overviews of high-quality literature and free access to the journal’s own articles. We aim to become the most important academic forum for design research and artistic development in the Nordic countries. The articles are published in Norwegian, other Scandinavian languages, or English. The Editor-in-Chief carries full editorial responsibility according to the Norwegian Rights and Duties of the Editor (Association of Norwegian Editors, 2004); however, he/she takes the initiative to consult with the editorial staff and editorial board. It is, therefore, the members of the editorial team and editorial board that provide a collective endorsement of the professional quality of the information published in the journal.

The journal FormAkademisk is a peer-reviewed scientific forum for the documentation of design and design education research, broadly defined.
