Through non-interventionist and interventionist methodologies with qualitative basis, a management model was developed to apply in research project in the communication design field. On this way, this study evidences the importance of using suitable methodologies, applying project management and design management concepts, and lastly demonstrates how Design Thinking and visual thinking methods can improve the outcomes of the projects when these disciplines were used together. This research has as main goals to clarify the research project management in communication design, to demonstrate the importance of an application related to a management model in a research project in a professional practice context, to contribute for scientific knowledge. The present study intends also to understand how the project management can help, whether reasoning the problem in a holistic view or within a specific framework.engDesign managementProject managementCommunication designResearch in communication designDesign methodologiesconference object10.1007/978-3-030-89735-2_55
