Slick Design Thinking

Lingfeng Liu

Slick Design Thinking uses “slick hair” as a prompt for exploring the language of design. The slick hairstyle originated in 18th-century France. Its development was affected by the World Wars, Western social attitudes, and jazz culture. The style is glossy and sensual but has also been associated with superficiality and slipperiness. The theme of slick hair has helped me develop both disciplined and free methods for creating form and conveying content.
