Exploring ways of designing with AI | The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

Human Creativity and AI: Exploring Co-Design in the Sketching Process of Fashion Design | Delft Netherlands

#Experimental design. #Qualitative research. #Quantitative research. #Paper publication

Feb. 23 - Jun. 23

This study investigates the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in the early stages of fashion design, with a particular focus on the sketching process.
This study developed a conceptual framework for testing the interaction between designers and artificial intelligence when drawing jewelry and patterns for clothing.
A total of 40 participants participated in this study and created 138 sketches.
Through the analysis of the results, jewelry design shows positive differences in novelty, while pattern design shows positive differences in quality and novelty. This article helps to understand the collaborative creative potential of artificial intelligence collaboration in fashion design sketches.
