The Design Creativity SIG is a new SIG within the DS, aimed at elucidating
the nature of design creativity through study of issues such as the
cognitive processes underlying design creativity, computational models of
design creativity and practical processes to incorporate the human and
social dimensions. The SIG will be holding a Workshop during ICED’09 on 25
August from 9.00 to 12.30. The Workshop will aim to present a forum to
discuss the nature and potential of design creativity from theoretical and
methodological viewpoints. In addition the workshop aims to discuss the
direction of research in design creativity. In particular the workshop
intends to establish a framework for themes and research directions for
