How sustainable is the design, from manufacturing through packaging to use and final disposal?
➜ Elegance and Beauty Whether classic or modern, symmetrical or no, ah or aha! Does the design send you?

➜ Integration Does the design fit the system? Does it mesh well and extend, achieving more than the concept alone?
➜ Durability Is the design’s life span appropriate to its usage and good sustainable practice?
➜ Discovery and Implementation What was the design strategy? How was progress measured? Was the process itself innovative? Was the process multidisciplinary? Did the design sell or fulfill its goals?
