“…Tschimmel [12] suggests design as a perception-in-action process has five nonlinear intersected procedures: the perception of the task, the perception of a new perspective, the perception of new semantic combinations, the perception in prototyping, and the perception of users' reactions.…”

This paper introduces a methodology to analyse design linkographs by quantifying entropy at each single move throughout the design process. The method adopts the deterministic information theory proposed by Titchener to develop a quantitative model aiming to highlight the significant nodes by coding the dependency relations (backlinks and forelinks) into character strings of information. Two computational methods are suggested to quantify T-code sets on a micro-level at every single utterance. This proposition is intended to capture repetition of patterns and hierarchy in the linkograph pattern. This quantitative approach is integrated with a qualitative model of judging sketching episodes and evaluating the relations between the instantaneously evolved products during the design process such as the interim sketches. The results point at significant correlations between quantitative and qualitative models on the key nodes to occur in the process to identify the emergence of novel ideas and describe design creativity.

“…This classification was the starting point of the search for movements in the field of creativity in design that sought new models to better describe the stages of a process. As demonstrated by some design researchers, the classification and the respective visualization of the different phases of the design process depends above all on the methodological paradigm in which the creative process in the design is analyzed and described [22][23][24]. In the design methodology there was a paradigm shift in the 1980s, from the analytical and rational logic, to the holistic one of progressive affirmation of design solutions.…”

Creativity - A Force to Innovation

In these recent years, museum institutions are facing challenges such as deepening diversity among audiences and within the workforce, shifting authority and keeping pace with the creation of a digital offering to be provided in the new shared economy. Additionally, museums cannot just deliver knowledge as information anymore. They are forced to seek to be relevant and meaningful for the audiences and the society. Thus, a visitor-centered approach needs to be developed. The design thinking framework can help museum professionals to face the challenges they handle in today’s world. Indeed, this approach is focused on people and not on a specific product or service. The goal is to understand the needs of customers, their wishes and, based on this information, find the best solution to respond to the type of problem identified or the strategy to be developed. For this reason, the ratio of this discipline provides that people are stimulated to find alternative, creative, and innovative solutions designed and built on the reality of the facts and not dictated by instinct. The aim of this chapter is to investigate the characteristics of the design thinking approach and to analyze how this framework can be implemented in museum institutions.

“…However, in recent decades, discussions in the design field have paid particular attention to User Centered Design (UCD), which focuses more on taking into account behavioral, social, physical and cognitive aspects of the users [6]. It is based on the effective participation of users throughout the whole project, in order to collect information on their experiences for solutions closer to their needs [7,8]. In this context, Universal Design (UD) and Usability contribute significantly to the UCD process, while presenting similarities in their criteria: DU aimed to establish wide access to products and Usability focused on the ease of use [9].…”

User Centered Design approach is used in many sectors and appropriated by many design teams to defend principles of products adapted to the final users. In the Architectural and Industrial Design disciplines, architects and designers defend principles that could be able to create spaces, public areas or innovated products that are closer as possible as the user behavior. The issue is still the complexity of the user perception and the variability of its interpretation of the environment. The research method used in this research is to combine Universal Design and Usability approaches to be able to extract one first list of principles. The combination of this list with the five human sensorial systems identified in the literature give the structure of a tool that can be proposed to projectists like architects and industrial designers to better consider user perception during the designing process. The result of the research is the proposition of a software coupled with a user friendly interface dedicated to architects and industrial designer. It has the aim to simplify the organization of the early phases of the design process, taking into account designers and architects design priorities and integrating the final user specific sensorial situation.
