The Design Research Observatory is Curated Collection of Design Research examples, and is one of Design Research Works’ major outputs.
It was meticulously researched through our Lab Engagements programme and was founded on our early efforts to map the Design Research landscape.

In line with everything Design Research Works does, the Observatory exists to help anyone, from curious newcomers to seasoned experts, discover what Design Research is, understand why it matters, and explore the diverse ways it creates value in our rapidly changing world.
There is a comprehensive launch blog over here.
This is a clip from our documentary film Permission to Muck About that discusses an early prototype of the Observatory.
