Abstract
The investigation Digital Design proposes an approach to the methodological and functional structures of the Visual Design, starting from the technological mediations that today are presented in social, economic, and cultural environments. The investigation analyzes the implications of the digital works in the Visual Designer’s professional works and how it will make it a significant change, in two aspects: in the way like the Visual Designer solves the problems of the visualization of the data and the communication; and in the way like this comparative discrepancy transforms the appropriation of the data and the knowledge on the part of the communities, the companies and the institutions. The Digital Design shows an investigation field in growth that requires the application of a group of interdisciplinary notions defined by professionals in the area of the Visual Design, the Engineering of Systems and Programming, the Educational Studies, among others. The investigation gathers the knowledge of each one of these areas and it relates with the Digital Design. The investigation contributes, as a result, a document in three formats: in a book, in a collection interactive of 8 CD ROMs and a W ebsite.
