design cycle

identify:

create a design brief

research around problems

create a process plan

design:

create a design specification

create initial designs

create a manufacturing plan

drawings refined using CAD

Optimise:

a first prototype is built, inspired by the initial designs. the prototype can then be tested and tried in focus groups, if the prototype shows any issues then this allows the designer to change the design.

error proofing is then used to ensure the product cannot be used incorrectly

validate:

the product is then continuously tested

the product is also evaluated in the validate phase, by client evaluation
