This paper reflects on the experience of articulating position and practice in a PhD by Design, from an interdisciplinary perspective in a design for health context. The central motivations to use research through design, drawn from experience of person centred approaches in the context of health, social care, housing and inclusive design that inform the research question are outlined. The benefits of design research as a tool to explore lived experience of people living with dementia on a sensory experiential level is explored. The unique value and relevance of the sensory aspects of disruptive, critical and speculative design approaches to explore aesthetic preferences is identified. Methods of documentation of practice in practice based design and the lack of accessible archives is considered. The potential for the research experience contribute to learning and teaching in design that can influence change are considered.
