Introduction to Design The Design Process n n n The design process is an engineering activity that turns a concept into reality. The concept is a solution to a specific problem or a perceived need. The process from concept to solution is not random. It is a logical sequence of steps to develop the best solution to a specific problem.

The Design Process n n The design process is not a one-way street ending

The Design Process n n The design process is not a one-way street ending in the finished product. It is a series of stages and check-points where each step in this process can be reviewed analyzed. Modifications or refinements can be made to the concept.
