Focusing on the concept of "New Quality Productive Forces of Design", the work aims to explore how it, as a core driving engine, systematically empowers and reshapes the development logic and implementation path of "Wuhan City of Design". Based on the theory of New Quality Productive Forces, an approach combining theoretical construction and case study is adopted. The conceptual connotation, constituent dimensions and core attributes of "New Quality Productive Forces of Design" are firstly defined, then this framework is used to evaluate the current construction status of Wuhan City of Design, and finally a systematic development path is proposed. It is clarified that "New Quality Productive Forces of Design" is a new form of productivity based on the leapfrog advancement of three major elements including design subjects, design tools, and design objects, with integrated innovation, systemic empowerment, and value guidance as its core attributes. It is diagnosed that Wuhan City of Design exhibits structural characteristics of "Traditional design productive forces are developed, but the cultivation of new quality productive forces of design remains insufficient". Furthermore, the six development paths of talent reshaping, platform empowerment, strategic intervention, integration activation, service embedding, and value guidance are proposed. Extending the New Quality Productive Forces theory to the design field provides a new theoretical perspective for research on Cities of Design and offers both explanatory and practical guidance for the transformation and upgrading of Wuhan City of Design.
