Market globalisation and technology advances require fast adaptation to customer needs by being creative and competent. Current practices in design constituted the basis for the developed Creative Design Tools (CDTs) system architecture. The developed system provides users with and integrated and flexible creative design environment to enhance their creative conceptual thinking. Such design environment requires the integration of many components namely: design process, creative tools and design knowledge within a highly collaborative interactive human-computer interface. The CDT system was implemented as a web application, which was integrated with various creative methods.
