CONTINUOUS DESIGN PROCESS
SYSTEM
“Continuous improvement” – no prescribed “end
point”
“Desired capabilities” – no well-defined and
bounded requirements
Reality indicates that “no one” is actually in charge
Heterogeneity across diverse domains of
functional and form needs
“DESIGN Systems” come and go so design
system is NOT bounded

My Personal Definition of Design:
Design refers to the human activity to invent a
new structure for utility“
”
Note:
This is a very general definition, and should apply to all kinds of design
activities, including architectural design, industrial design, urban design,
process design, organization design, you name it.

Conclusion:
The mission of design is to improve the human emotion
(structure of mind), and economic outcome (structure of
economy)
To achieve this mission, we have to influence the “structure of
events” (e.g. the process flow) and the “structure of people” (e.g.
social network), by manipulating the door /window, screens,
levels , structure , etc.
This also determines the design process: “define the mission” ->
“design the stories” -> “design the architecture”
