Inquiry: the controlled or directed transformation of an indeterminate situation into one that is so determinate in its constituent distinctions and relations as to convert the elements of the original situation into a unified whole.

New York, pp104-105

Design Research can give adequate (good enough) understanding of a specific situation to inform design
Design research can be used to support any phase of the design process
All research has biasNo research is ever complete
