Creative Practice and Critical Thinking

Creative Practice and Critical Thinking are poles apart but they are vital. They are important alone and stronger; together. I do believe that both of them cater to different needs in the design-industry.

As a designer, we need both creative thinking and critical thinking. Depending on the different design field, one may require problem-solving and critical-thinking to create a building floor plan before executing on the actual model because it requires logical thinking and consideration to avoid a huge chaos. Whereas on the other hand of ours, we may need both depending on our project briefs.

For example, a branding system for a client may need both critical thinking and creative practice for clients for a compatible business and goals, while writing & illustrating a kid's book may require only creative practice to make their readers wonder.

As a young designer, I have been applying both creative practice and critical thinking in my recent works. To re-analyse all over again to ensure that my design prompts and artworks are coherent, while making sure that they are well visually-communicated. It is extremely vital to also practice intellectual humility. Our beautiful designs will be wasted if we do not understand the goals and requirements!

In short, I do not think that both of them works the same but they provide convenience to different people.
