CREATIVE TRANSFORMATION - A DESIGN PERSPECTIVE

This paper outlines a research program, which seeks to develop strateg ies to facilitate creative development through paradigmatic transforma tion. The paper begins with the notion of a ''Being strategy'' by expl oring the Mobius Ring as a model for creativity. The model offers meta phors appropriate to design which seeks to build a connection with the underlying dynamics of subjective life. This paper then explores how these strategies can be employed within a design context to transform the consciousness of the designer.
