Use Inventive Principles

Have Designers with Idea Blocks?

Would you like to...

Generate ideas faster?
Overcome technical contradictions?
Save time and money?

Whether or not you are familiar with the term, your company probably faces technical contradictions frequently.

 Technical Contradiction?

A technical contradiction occurs when two design factors work against each other. In other words, when you try to solve one design challenge you make another design issue worse.

Think of a car. If you increase Horsepower you reduce Fuel Economy. If you increase Fuel Economy you reduce Horsepower. This contradiction stumps designers that need to improve both.

Most companies try to respond to the problem with expensive and time-consuming research and development efforts.

That is not always the answer.

Focused creativity lightens the burden and helps you avoid spending time and money reinventing the wheel. You can leverage “tried and true” design principles.

What if the solution builders at your company had a tool to ignite the creative thinking process?
