Human-Centred Design
Creative approach for problem
solving that focuses in understanding
the people’s needs at the centre of
the issues to resolve

Design Thinking
It’s a methodology that utilizes a
human-centred approach to
systematically identify opportunities
for innovation

Design Thinking
HUMANS AT THE CENTRE

Diﬀerent faces, same process
Design thinking has evolved over the years and
diﬀerent ‘versions’ of the methodology have
emerged. However at the very core, all these
versions obey to one simple rule: keep the
users at the core of your solutions  
(human-centred design).
