Definition

“Design is the most immediate, the most explicit way of defining what products become in people’s mind.” ~ Jonathan I’ve Product design is the detailed specification of a manufactured item's parts and their relationship to the whole. A product design needs to take into account how the item will perform its intended functionality in an efficient, safe and reliable manner. The product also needs to be capable of being made economically and to be attractive to targeted consumers.
