While our reading and writing is linear, but out thinking and assimilating the world around us is multi-dimensional \u2013 its full of ideas and images and is constantly evolving.<br \/>\nAs designers, we all need to be able to put our thoughts down on paper. For every design exercise we gather a lot of information. Being able to put this knowledge on paper in a visual exercise frees the thinking and helps begin engaging in the design exercise and this is a continuous process.<br \/>\nIf we look at the research material on great thinkers and philosophers such as Leonardo da Vinci, Pablo Picasso, Thomas Edison, Charles Darwin, they all use a combination of images, words, and diagrams to record and explore their ideas.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/localhost:8080\/custom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4396 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/localhost:8080\/custom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-300x217.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"217\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iilm.edu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-300x217.png 300w, https:\/\/iilm.edu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image.png 338w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Diagrams Graphically Construct our Knowledge<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Diagramming can become an essential tool for working in a team. It enhances creativity and problem solving, gives value to our ideas, and organizes thoughts. It frees the mind and helps us excel at what we do, by enabling us to better structure our thoughts, and to express our ideas more clearly. The evolving diagram becomes a vehicle to take us from our unresolved state to a more organized state. In the process we learn to analyze the information that we collect and represent it for discussion in a clear structured manner.<\/p>\n<p>Diagrams are a visual thinking tool that helps us put our thoughts down with color, words, lines and rhythm. Whatever we need to think about more effectively and exercise our imagination. They help us to organise our thoughts. Its an image with network of associations.<br \/>\nVisual diagrams help in problem solving, creativity, management and scheduling. Once having put these thoughts down in a diagrammatic manner, it helps to be structured and confident in sharing, developing and creating concepts. It allows continuity and development in your work.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/localhost:8080\/custom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4397 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/localhost:8080\/custom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-1-300x198.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iilm.edu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-1-300x198.png 300w, https:\/\/iilm.edu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-1.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tools for Diagramming<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Use all the tricks and of the trades that a graphic designer would use for creating an advertisement: Lines, images, visual metaphors, colours to convey ideas.
