Design Thinking
Design thinking is the core creative process for any designer; this book explores and explains this apparently mysterious “design ability.” Focusing on what designers do when they design, Design Thinking is structured around a series of in-depth case studies of outstanding and expert designers, interwoven with overviews and analyses. The range covered reflects the breadth of design, from hardware and software design to architecture and Formula On…
Designerly Ways of Knowing
The paper begins with a brief review of the historical concerns with the relationship between design and science, and seeks to clarify three different interpretations of this concern: (a) scientific design, (b) design science, and (c) a science of design. The paper then develops the view of 'design as a discipline', based upon a science of design. This discipline seeks to develop domain-independent approaches to theory and research in design. The…
Creativity in the design process
Creativity in Design
The sudden insight provided by a “creative leap” is widely regarded as a characteristic feature of creative design. An example of such a creative leap occurred during a recorded study of the activity of a small design team. Several different analyses of the recorded design activity made by independent researchers confirm the critical role of this creative leap in the design process of the team. The author reviews some generic descriptive models o…
