In this research project, we have focused on the design process that designers carry out in the real-world community. We have been observing, describing and reflecting on what happens when designers enter a particular community for 10 years, and have tried to derive insights to promote regional design from it. As a result, a lot of practical knowledge was accumulated on how to enter the community, how to behave in the community, how to proceed with design projects, how to share results, and so on. Above all, it is important for designers to pay attention to building relationships with community members before starting designing. As a future possibility, we were able to show the direction of design for the local community to accept designers from the outside.
