The Design Thinking Process
d.school

15. “First, the gathering of raw materials – both the materials of
your immediate problem and the materials which come from a
constant enrichment of your store of general knowledge.
!
Second, the working over of these materials in your mind.
!
Third, the incubating stage, where you let something beside the
conscious mind do the work of synthesis.
!
Fourth, the actual birth of the Idea – the ‘Eureka! I have it!’
stage.
!
And fifth, the final shaping and development of the idea to
practical usefulness.”
James Webb Young
