INTRO Flashcards
A highly innovative and crossdisciplinary process that uses the most
acceptable, aesthetic, efficiency, and
economical means to satisfy people’s need.
Designing
The process of organizing the
methodology needed to proceed from
concept to final product, determining
which technological resources to use, the
economics of production and operation,
and the human and social factors that will
be needed.
