What is the role of design thinking in design implementation?

Design thinking plays a vital role in design implementation as it helps designers to approach the design process with a user-centered mindset. By using empathy, creativity, and critical thinking, design thinking allows designers to deeply understand users’ needs, concerns, and behaviors which, in turn, informs the decision-making process in the design implementation stage.

Design thinking also enables designers to iterate and test their design solutions, ensuring that the final product meets the users’ needs and aligns with the intended design goals. It helps designers to identify and solve problems creatively, rather than simply addressing symptoms. By adopting a design thinking approach, designers can create more user-friendly and effective products that have a greater impact on users and society.
