Six Thinking Hats (De Bono) - Full Set
Print Profile(1)
Description
A printable set of Thinking Hats, inspired by Edward de Bono's classic "Six Thinking Hats" method. Each color represents a different mode of thinking, turning a proven technique into a fun, tangible tool for brainstorms, meetings, workshops and classrooms. Hand everyone a hat — or pass them around — to deliberately switch perspectives during a discussion.
The colors and what they stand for:
- White — facts, figures and objective information
- Red — emotions, feelings and intuition
- Black — caution, risks and critical judgment
- Yellow — optimism, benefits and a constructive view
- Green — creativity, new ideas and alternatives
- Blue — overview, process and keeping control of the discussion
Printed on a Bambu Lab P2S with the AMS 2 Pro, so the multicolor details come out clean straight off the plate — no painting required.
Print settings:
- 0.20mm layer height
- 7% infill (triangle)
- Tree supports (auto), with "on build plate only" turned OFF
- Supports came off extremely easily and cleanly
Each color is available as a separate model, and there's an all-in-one plate with all 6 hats so you can print the complete set in a single job. Tip: print one hat per person in your team for live De Bono sessions.
