Grid of creativity

This is s simple and fast technique of generating ideas using thumbnail sketching.

1. Draw up a grid of 3x4 or 4x4.

2. Sketch a really simple idea in the first box and the work your way along making playing with this idea, making changes, working with it, until at the end of the row you have a reasonably good design idea.

3. Do this to fill the grid so that you will end up with 3 or 4 ideas that you can chose from.
