  Contents of Research Career

  This study concerns with the possible support system, which effectively aids to come across creative concept for designers and to make them product. Process of design thinking is, broadly speaking, divided into divergent process and convergent process . In the divergent thinking process, the possibility of getting new ideas is high, but usually the existing concepts block against it. We tried to have theoretical framework for the method to make us free from stereotypes.
