It provides examples of a practical application and an individual design that use conceptual transformation as an axis and develop the properties of divergent trees as a reference for professionals and researchers. From our research, we discovered that the properties of divergent trees could be used in design thinking at the stage of creation. The divergent nature of the matter-element of divergent trees extends the conceptual range of ideas. It amasses a huge amount of divergent vocabulary, and generates a better concept of creation and performance from association. From these theoretical propositions and their practical application, the following conclusions can be drawn from the present research: 1.In terms of the application of the divergent nature of matter-element of divergent trees, free flow of creation is of the utmost importance. One should avoid being trapped by standard terms or formulae. 2.Through combining the application of the divergent nature of matter-element of divergent trees with other creative thinking methods, more facets of design creation can be discovered. 3.The application of the divergent nature of matter-element of divergent trees is an explicit thinking method. For designers, learning about design and life experience are related to divergent thinking.
