Abstract
Design thinking is a phase of thinking fast with high-intensity, and cognition phase is also a very complicated process, in which the perspective of observing and pondering on design matters often directly affects the process and results of design. Some distinguished scholars have provided different perspectives for us to understand the world around us, such as E. H. Gombrich’s “Reflections on Main Project”, Rudolf Arnheim’s “Vision is Thinking”, Michel Foucault’s “The Eyes of Power”, and Heinrich Wolfflin’s “Reflections on Form”, among others.
In the long-term design practice and research, from the “Complementary Perspective”, the author finds that the cognitive intention is rooted in the Chinese traditional thoughts and culture, and perceives the objective world with a unique way. As Lao Tzu said, “Distinguishing the right from the wrong is the basic rule of life”. From the opposite side, we should observe, analyze, and understand the design matters in a thinking mode of “tackling both extremes” to break through the limitation of one-way thinking. In the dynamic activities of opposition and complementation, noting the rheology between the opposite and the complementary relationship behind enables us to “sense” the “phenomenon” that others analyzing architecture failed to sense, which can help the design cognition become more comprehensive and the innovation deeper.
“Complementary Perspective” aims at broadening design thinking, constructing, organizing and creating a more comprehensive cognitive pattern based on the diversity, unity, and integration of design, contingency of decision, and varieties of possibilities in problem solving. Specifically, Complementary Perspectives include positive perspective, and opposite perspective; common-seeking perspective, and difference-seeking perspective; ego perspective, and non-ego perspective; ordered perspective, and disordered perspective; and traditional perspective, and prospective perspective, and among others.
