Purpose of the Design

Teleological

The design itself has to have an specific purpose. There has to be a good reason for the design itself, so it can fulfill and satisfy effectively and optimally the needs for which it is designed and created for.

Simplest way

Ockham's Razor

There can be no doubt that the simplest way, is the best way. This is a fundamental principal for optimal functionality for any design. The simpler, the better.

Redo until most effective

Iterative

A model or a design has to be reconstructed from it's previous successor to accomplish eventual optimal perfection, it has to be done and redone until most effective.

No potential danger

Safety oriented

Safety of use is an obvious and critical feature inherent to any specific design. It most be safe to use.

Quality - Performance - Value

Durability

Durability is optimal quality. Most designs today are built to brake within an specific time, "planned obsolescence" or built-in obsolescence. In industrial design and economics is a policy of planning or designing a product with an artificially limited useful life, so it will become obsolete (that is, unfashionable or no longer functional) after a certain period of time. Market profit is one of the biggest enemies for optimal functionality and efficiency of design.

Can not be expensive

Affordable

Value has to be properly priced, in consideration with it's niche's financial margins and economical power.
