 | In Volume 65 of the book series Smart Innovation, Systems and Technologies (SIST) Paper: People, Chair, and Value(S): A Qualitative Inquiry into the Material Lives Authors: Saurabh Tewari and Kumar Ravi Priya DOI: 10.1007/978-981-10-3518-0_3 Abstract The objective of this paper is to explore the different value(s) that are prioritized and delegated by their users in a thing under their possession. The seating furniture at home was taken as the subject to study where users see it as an extension of their being. Using a method pivoting around Grounded Theory and Observation, it gathers meaningful data, process it through coding and memo writing and achieves a range of categories after a theoretical saturation. The paper attempts to borrow the classical rigour of Grounded Theory to come up with a Design Research Methodology for studying Design and its consumption.
