Abstract |
The ability to recognize properties and characteristics unforeseen in the early stage of design, namely shape emergence, would be considered one of vital aspects of human visual perception in creative thinking. This study aims at developing a design model by using an extended theory of shape emergence, mutation shape emergence. The first part of this paper describes the definition of mutational emergent shapes clearly. In the second part, possibility of discovering mutational emergent shapes will be explored through empirical studies. On the basis of the results of the efforts, we will examine closely the cognitive mechanism to discover mutational emergent shapes. In the last stage, we will suggest a process model of mutation shape emergence. |
