Mind Map (Phrase 1)

I always start my design work with a "mind map". It may be messy but most important it is very helpful for me to focus for generalization and visualization that lead me to classify more ideas for design.

After Phrase 1 Research, i summarized the informations and results through the mind map.

Figure 1. General Topic "Dog"

Figure 2. Sub Topics "Dog's Food" and "Dog Categories"

I start my research with a common topic; Dog. After i summarized the information, i highlighted the key words that match with my proposal. The next mind map is the further research from the key words.
