This position paper contends that care can only be useful when it understands
the personal context of care and can be shaped to accommodate individual
needs. To design with care and to care through design we need to develop a
designerly empathic attitude that listens to and ‘feels with’ others. This requires
the designer to be observant, curious, non-judgmental and open to understand
the perspectives and issues of others.
