Collaborative Sketching is a creativity technique that addresses vision and seeks to visualize ideas. Ideas are developed and collected by sketching together as a team.
With this method, the quantity of ideas is what matters most. No final solutions are expected. Also need
the sketches/drawings do not look perfect. Everyone draws as they can. The technical execution is not important, because the focus is on the development of ideas.
Collaborative Sketching also represents an extension of “Method 6-3-5,” a brainwriting technique by Bernd Rohrbach. The number represents the number of participants, the number of ideas and the number of steps or procedures.
Following this, Collaborative Sketching was also initially given a different name, “Method 5-1-4 G.” The number-letter combination stood for five participants working simultaneously on an idea, essentially going through four steps. In addition, since the method uses graphical representation, the letter G (for graph) has been added.
