About Jurnal Desain

Jurnal Desain is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal that publishes original and high-quality research in design, architecture, visual art, and visual culture. The journal provides an interdisciplinary forum for researchers, academics, designers, architects, artists, and practitioners to advance scholarly knowledge through theoretically informed, methodologically sound, and analytically rigorous studies.

Jurnal Desain primarily publishes original empirical research articles and design studies that make a clear scholarly contribution to these fields. Manuscripts may examine visual, material, spatial, digital, media-related, cultural, or practice-based phenomena through appropriate scholarly and methodological approaches. Conceptual or theoretical manuscripts may be considered when they are applied to a clearly defined corpus, case, artefact, practice, or phenomenon relevant to the journal's focus and scope.

Jurnal Desain is published quarterly by Universitas Indraprasta PGRI, Jakarta, Indonesia, and applies a double-blind peer-review process to all manuscripts that proceed to external review.

For detailed information on the journal's subject coverage, accepted manuscript types, and submission boundaries, please refer to the Focus and Scope.

Peer Review

Manuscripts that successfully complete the Initial Editorial Assessment are evaluated through a double-blind peer-review process by two independent qualified reviewers.

For manuscripts processed through the regular review pathway, the overall process from initial submission to online publication typically takes approximately 3–5 months. The actual duration may vary depending on reviewer availability, the number of review and revision rounds, the authors’ response time, manuscript complexity, and completion of the post-acceptance production process. In some cases, the overall process may take up to six months.

Reviewer recommendations are advisory. Revised manuscripts are evaluated by the Section Editor, who provides an editorial recommendation to the Editor-in-Chief. The final editorial decision remains the responsibility of the Editor-in-Chief and is based on the reviewers’ assessments, the adequacy of the authors’ revisions, scholarly quality, publication ethics, and the journal’s editorial standards.

For complete information on the editorial and peer-review workflow, please refer to the Peer Review Process.

Publication Schedule

Jurnal Desain is published quarterly, with regular issues scheduled in:

Manuscripts are processed continuously throughout the year and are not required to wait for an approaching issue before entering the editorial and peer-review process.

Jurnal Desain may apply an Issue in Progress publication model, allowing final and publication-ready articles to be published progressively within the corresponding regular issue.
