Abstract

In this paper we explore and argue about the possibilities of the Structured User Interface Design SUID methodology as a Lateral Thinking tool for designing user interfaces. The structured and layered fashion of SUID has been reported to have the characteristics of educing and stimulating creativity that is present in Lateral Thinking techniques, which can help designers in user interface-related tasks. When confronted with key concepts of those techniques the methodology appears to be consistent with them and worth of using for finding new sources of innovation.
