ABSTRACT: This study examines the integration of values into design methodologies, essential for guiding value-driven design processes. Values, spanning ethical, economic, and functional dimensions, influence decision-making and project outcomes. Through Principal Component Analysis (PCA), five clusters of design methodologies were identified, each addressing distinct aspects of value integration. Interviews with designers highlighted challenges in defining, formalizing, and adapting values due to their inherent subjectivity and volatility. This study, by adopting a values-centered perspective, enriches our understanding of design methodologies and paves the way for more informed methodological choices across various contexts.
