Creative conceptual design ideas for Ghost Money- Burning Tub with Design Thinking, TRIZ, and Universal Design methodology

A burn ghost money is Taiwanese religions and cultural traditions. But burning gold paper will produce carbon dioxide, causing environmental pollution. Therefore, the aim of this study attempts to creative design concepts for a ghost money- burning tub. This study will be based on the five stages of design thinking, according to D. School, are as follows: empathy, define, ideate, prototype, and test. The research methods involved brainstorming, observational field research, systematic innovation methods (such as Mandala, Attribute Listing Technique, Cause and Effect Diagrams, Scenarios Analysis), TRIZ theory, Taiwan Patent Search System, and universal design questionnaire. Results of this study showed that a ghost money- burning tub can reduce environmental pollution. Keywords: Mandala, Attribute Listing Technique, Cause and Effect Diagrams, TRIZ
