Creativity and the Design Process
In recent years it has become quite respectable, as another contributor to this issue puts it, to investigate creativity scientifically. Yet the actual process of architectural creation is still approached by many architects and educators as if it were above natural law, with success dependent upon the designer's possession of a magic carpet, called intuition, to waft him across what is sometimes called the great leap. Here W. Lawrence Garvin states the case for a method which, in his view, “tends to reduce the design leap from a precarious vault into the unknown to that of one of a series of measured steps along the path toward a clear resolution of the problem.”
