Design thinking is a systematic approach to complex problems from all areas of life. In contrast to many established approaches in science and practice, which approach tasks from the point of view of technical solvability, the design thinking process focuses on the wishes and needs of the user.
The design thinking participants look at the problem from the user's perspective in order to find innovative solutions. These can be products, services, processes or systems. Design thinking solutions must also combine technical feasibility and economic viability.

When applying the design thinking process, the main aim is to improve empathy and plastic thinking when finding solutions. To achieve this, creating an innovative and design-friendly culture is beneficial. The workplace is a key element for design thinking. The space in which people work together collaboratively has a strong influence on the behavior of the teams.
