Abstract

This article aims to describe the layers of creative processes of Design when it is carried out with Computer Graphic Tools (CGT). This article reviews and explores cognitive theories that is largely discussed within the fields of creativity research. Theories and concepts that is discuss includes the adaptation process by Jean Piaget, Divergent and Convergent Thinking that is proposed by Guilford, and Analogical thinking. In line with the discussion is the weaving of these theories with the design process. From the existing literature in these fields of study, the article conceptualized the layers of creative processes of design during its interaction with CGT. The review is significant especially to understand how designers think in producing artwork using computers.
