Design Processes

The Double Diamond design process is a widely recognized framework for creative problem-solving and design thinking, developed by the British Design Council. It consists of four key phases that split the process into two diamonds: Discover, Define, Develop, and Deliver. Each phase focuses on different aspects of understanding and addressing a problem, helping designers navigate through exploration and solution generation.

Originated in 1960s when industrial designers and engineers began discussing "wicked problems"—issues that are difficult or impossible to solve due to incomplete, contradictory, or changing requirements.
