Each approach is explained with a brief narrative text followed by a variety of visual demonstrations and case studies. \nLupton's hands-on, close-up approach, made famous with Thinking with Type, makes the creative process accessible to anyone and removes the myth that creativity is an in-born talent.\nA wide range of methods applicable to various brainstorming scenarios are included. Techniques are grouped around the three basic phases of the design process: defining the problem, inventing ideas, and creating form. The approaches include informal strategies that are ideal for quick, seat-of-the-pants thinking as well as more formal research methods.
