Generate ideas
A lot of ideas originate from making connections between two things that at first sight don’t have a lot in common. A lot of things are ‘born’ by coincidence. Recently, students of the Design Academy discovered that decaying fruit turns into a leather-like substance. The first manufactured bags have already been sold.
To be able to think in this way, it is very important to use the principles of “generating”. In other words, divergent thinking.
