Co-evolution of Problem and Solution Space - Dorst 2002, visualized by Manhaes, Adapted.

This diagram is based on the academic journal Co-evolution of Problem and Solution space and visualized by Professor Manhae. The article talks about how in the design process, the original problem and solution start in different spaces, but as you go through the process and understand both contexts, the problem and solution spaces move towards each other. As the problem and solutions are constantly adapting, the final problem and solution is an overlap of both the spaces, but do not form a perfect match in reality.

We have adapted the visualization to match our process, since we found that the two spaces that we were researching, Social Networks and Tabletop Games, contained problems that were solved in the other’s solution spaces and solutions that were answers to the other’s problem spaces. As we understood our subjects we grew to find value exchanges that glued our two spaces together (Vargo and Lusch 2004).
