Jinghao Xiong, Xiang Zheng, Yuri Nazarov

Resumo


Contextualization: In an era characterized by the growing importance of creativity, design emerges as a central player in shaping innovative solutions and bridging the gap between theory and practice. This article delves into the multifaceted realm of design creativity, exploring its connection to constitutional principles, politics of law, and the transformative potential of artificial intelligence. It seeks to uncover the inherent link between design and constitutionalism while examining its role in transnationality, sustainability, and the production of law.

Objective: The aim of this research was to highlight how the creativity is expressed through design and determine features of the designer's creative personality as a representative of the creative profession.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of psychological and pedagogical studies have been conducted. the article is also aiming to investigate the intricate relationship between design creativity and constitutional principles, elucidating how designers contribute to constitutional innovation.

Results: The results of this study illuminate the constitutional underpinnings of design creativity, revealing how designers operate at the intersection of principles, politics, and innovation. It showcases the pivotal role of creativity in transnational problem-solving and sustainable design practices. Furthermore, the analysis revealed several important features. Firstly, creatives demonstrate independence and a tendency towards divergent behavior, prioritizing their own principles and standards over societal norms. Secondly, they exhibit flexible thinking and openness to new ideas, breaking free from stereotypes to find innovative solutions. Thirdly, motivation for self-actualization and the desire for self-expression are crucial for creative design, as individuality plays a significant role in problem-solving. Lastly, the ability to identify, articulate, and resolve problems is emphasized, with a focus on the practicality and utility of the design outcome rather than solely its aesthetic qualities.
