Abstract

This study uses the qualitative research method of grounded theory to organically integrate the innovation-driven theory, the design thinking theory, the sustainable development theory and the transitional design theory, to develop and put forward the sustainable design thinking model, which serves the innovative design of enterprises in Fujian Province and the “14th Five-Year Plan” scientific and technological innovation development plan. The sustainable design thinking model is composed of three double diamond models, which are analyzed from three dimensions: social economy, technological development and product service design. Potential opportunity gaps at key nodes are identified through divergent and convergent thinking processes. After that, Dehua ceramic industry in Fujian Province is taken as a case study and the sustainable design thinking model is used for case study. This paper analyzes the ceramic industry in Dehua from the macroscopic industrial level and the microscopic product design level respectively, and puts forward the existing problems and solutions. The results show that sustainable design thinking mode can strengthen the team's user-oriented concept, increase the team creativity, and effectively improve the maturity and clarity of product concept. Sustainable design mindsets positively influence communication, design learning, consensus and thinking among team members in cross-domain collaborative design, thereby enhancing team innovation and creativity, and reinforcing user-oriented concepts and sustainable development goals.
