We present an evaluaion of pattern languages as tools for participatory design, based on three criteria, derived from the work of Christopher Alexander: empowering users, generative design and life-enhancing outcomes. Our results suggest that pattern languages can be used to enable users to participate in design, but that the role of facilitator and the form and physical presentaton of the pattern language are factors in success. |
