Abstract
In the new media age, digital media technologies, manifested in LED screen, digital projection, artistic installation, digital lighting and other forms have gradually become the new trend in the development of stage design, which is continuously enriching the artistic expressions of stage performances. But new difficulties in stage design arises as digital media technologies become diversified and various professional fields on the stage design become integrated. Four orders of design is a fundamental theory to guide practice. Its integrated design ideas for building systematicity are of vital importance to direct the application of digital media in stage design. By analyzing the core content of four orders of design and reviewing the development tendency of digital media in stage design, this thesis seeks to delve into the role and connotation of the four orders of design in different aspects of digital media in stage design, and ultimately presents methods and strategies for applying digital media in stage design.

The abovementioned four orders of design proposed by Richard Buchanan provides designers in different professional fields with an ever-deepening design idea compatible with development
Four orders of design are a process from tangible to abstract, like digital media design which focuses on systemic integration
Summary
Richard Buchanan has described the changing places of design practice and thinking as moving through four orders of design theory.[1]. The second order of design is the design of objects as “things”. The third order of design he calls it “actions” that design activities and processes. “thoughts” is the design of the environments and systems within which all the other orders of design coexist.[2]. The abovementioned four orders of design proposed by Richard Buchanan provides designers in different professional fields with an ever-deepening design idea compatible with development. Four orders of design are a process from tangible to abstract, like digital media design which focuses on systemic integration. Digital media designers for stage need to have the ability to deal with these very complex questions that lie at the core of four orders of design
