Dots and Lines

Our core strategy of “Dots and Lines” grew from our portfolio and essay development processes. Through years of practice, we have found this concept an efficient inspiration to generate creative solutions to problems in work and life.

What is the dot?

A dot could be a habit, a hobby, a flash of insight, your favorite song, or a lesson learned from a difficult experience. To collect the dots, you have to thoroughly look back on your experiences.

What is the line?

A line is a consistent logic or pattern, which would be your personal language, your motivation, or your passion for a certain direction. Lines represent the relationships, the frame, and the network of scattered dots.

How to connect?

This process calls for creative thinking. Visualize your collected dots, map them on a big paper or board, then start analyzing. You might discover new relationships or clarify existing ones. In the case of visual portfolio development, by pinning up all your previous projects and sketches, you can recognize your dominant patterns. This consistency represents your preference of expression, which can be further extracted as your unique language. In the case of writing development, scattered materials should be assembled and structured with clear logic to make your thesis solid and convincing. By mapping your materials and reflecting on critical questions, the lines will appear.

Visualization

Bringing the abstract to life via visualization is a common method in creative fields. Visualizing tools include diagramming, connecting dots, etc. Additionally, we believe this kind of creative thinking is also a perfect way for analyzing problems in other areas. Visualization helps us to see the problems clearly and find answers efficiently.
