Merrion Design ReviewEditorial Policy
Merrion Design Review produces independent analysis, historical retrospective pieces, and critical essays covering global and regional design practice. Our team adheres to strict standards of intellectual honesty, attribution integrity, and analytical depth across every published article.
1. Sourcing
Our writers rely on primary documentation, verified designer monographs, patent filings, design archive repositories, direct creator interviews, and institutional exhibitions. When referencing software releases, interface design frameworks, or industrial manufacturing processes, we reference primary developer documentation, material data sheets, and verified design agency case studies rather than secondary aggregated reports.
2. Review process
Every manuscript passes through peer editorial review to ensure factual accuracy, visual clarity, and ethical critique before release. Senior editors review text for balanced assessment, inspect visual assets for correct copyright clearances, and confirm that historical and technical claims hold empirical merit within the broader discipline of design theory.
3. Corrections
When factual inaccuracies regarding dates, design attribution, technical specifications, or quotes are brought to our attention, our staff investigates promptly. Confirmed errors are updated directly in the text alongside a clear editorial notice at the bottom of the article detailing the correction and the date modified.
4. Advertising and independence
Sponsored essays, partner profiles, and brand collaborations are explicitly labeled at the beginning of each article to maintain transparent boundaries between paid messaging and independent critique. Commercial partners have no approval power over editorial reviews, and commercial arrangements never dictate our critical assessments of products, studios, or architectural developments.
