Journal Article
Oxman, R. (2002). The thinking eye: visual re-cognition in design emergence. Design Studies, 23(2), 135-164

Emergence has been widely recognized as a significant phenomenon of visual reasoning in design. Despite its centrality as a cognitive phenomenon, research in emergence currently lacks a comprehensive theoretical foundation. A broadened view of design...
