Design as a noun informally refers to a
plan or
convention for the construction of an object or a system (as in
architectural blueprints,
engineering drawing,
business process,
circuit diagrams and
sewing patterns) while “to design” (verb) refers to making this plan.
[1] No generally-accepted definition of “design” exists,
[2] and the term has different connotations in different fields (see
design disciplines below). However, one can also design by directly constructing an object (as in
pottery,
engineering,
management,
cowboy coding and
graphic design).
The person designing is called a
designer, which is also a term used for people who work professionally in one of the various design areas, usually also specifying which area is being dealt with (such as a
fashion designer,
concept designer or
web designer). A designer’s sequence of activities is called a design process.
[4] The scientific study of design is called design science.
