Abstract
The term disarming design has been moving through my practice as a description of a book, in the title of a design label, and a master’s programme. The words seemed poetic and nonconformist, but caused tensions, particularly in the context of Palestine, where the projects are undertaken. In this text, its interpretations and values are discussed as a critical self-reflection to carefully regard the political and ideological stance a title can imply.
