Design is a strategic approach to achieving a unique expectation by defining specifications, plans, costs, activities, processes, and legal/social constraints. The document includes images comparing the skeleton of a fossilized bison to the structure of a bridge, diagrams linking Gothic architecture and the human skeleton, anthropomorphic designs in pottery, and images showing natural structures inspiring industrial design examples.

approach for someone to achieve a unique
expectation. It defines the specifications,
plans, parameters, costs, activities,
processes and how and what to do within
legal, political, social, environmental,
safety and economic constraints in
achieving that objective.”
