House Md. - Gregory House: medical doctor

You would think that being a doctor has nothing to do with designing but that is where you could be wrong, or at least i was. Dr. House is a medical diagnostic doctor whose job is to find the problem and solve, kind of similar to the design processes. The way of how he approaches to the problems its still something unusual. He makes his team go and search patients houses, and then starts experimenting without knowing the problem. Its like seeking problem solutions rather than seeking the problem. Creating problems to find the real problem.

Another ways of designer processes that you can see in Dr. House is the way of how he leads the team and make brainstorming to find the symptoms and diagnose. One of the weird thing is the fact of how he keeps the distance to the patients and keep a cold open mind to everything that may go on. I don't know if this can be true with a designer to be unattached with what you design, but for Dr. House it worked fine since all he could see was puzzles and the way of solving these puzzles was a designer approach.
