Abstract

The design research described in this paper used generative tools in co-creation sessions with users in a Danish bank. The aim was to investigate users relationship to money and to banks. In a follow-up interview participants stated that they had changed their perception and behaviour in relation to money - and in accordance with their values, Thus, contrary to expectations, the research did not lead co-creation of values, but rather to a hypothesis that generative tools can act a "language for co-creation aimed at the collective creativity" (Sanders & Stappers, 2008) but even a a "language for selv-dialogue and value clarification aimed at the creativity of the individual" (Sørensen,02011).
