Abstract
It is a common perception that creativity for design is best performed in a collaborative, group environment.
Group idea generation and brainstorm sessions are of widespread practice across industries. This technique
remains popular despite numerous studies highlighting the inefficiencies of generating idea in such a fashion.
This paper puts together three ways of improving the group brainstorming session; working in nominal groups,
using stimuli and working in a virtual team. The final sections sets out recommendations for a future virtual
design environment capable of supporting group brainstorming.
