Abstract

This paper explores the scholarship in creative works and design studios. It examines the particular research methods associated with scholarship in creative works, including reflective practice and hermeneutics. The methodological considerations include comparisons between triangulation and crystallisation as tests for rigour, and the essential role of peer review and publication. The paper concludes with a suite of new landscape design studios with research potential. They include studios as part of larger research projects, and studios which are creative works in their own right where metaphor, trope and a form of avant-gardism are deployed to bring about a form of new knowledge.
