Abstract
This paper describes the characteristics of design methods necessary for facilitating the design process of sharing and accumulating design information by classifying existing methods based on several frameworks proposed in the field of design science: "design thinking", "design methodology", and "form of data". As a result, we classify 174 design methods into 13 categories. Along this classification, it is revealed that the expansion and proposition of design methods deemed appropriate to use in basic design are necessary for information sharing and accumulation.
