Well, in this first article I decided to bring up the question:

Why is that so important to develop a design thinking while producing graphically?

Before deep discussions, I would like to remember the principles of Design Thinking, that shows up as a practical supporter and tries the best to solve the problems that appears in the way.

“Design Thinking is extremely user-centric. It focuses on humans first and foremost, seeking to understand people’s needs and come up with effective solutions to meet those needs.” (STEVENS, 2020)

And, in the end, what is the difference between Problem-Based and Problem-based Thinking?

Well to compare the development between finding solutions based and not in design thinking we can mention (STEVENS, 2020) that says that “As the name suggests, solution-based thinking focuses on finding solutions; coming up with something constructive to effectively tackle a certain problem. This is the opposite of problem-based thinking, which tends to fixate on obstacles and limitations”.

So we can finally say that “Design Thinking (DT) as an innovation model with a high potential to generate differentiated results for associations that seek leadership, as it includes methods of investigation and development of solutions highly focused on users.” (BONINI et al., 2011)

That is why in my opinion is so important to develop a Problem-Based Thinking!
