Study Notes

Design Space

A large design space indicates potential complexity due to a high number of design variables.
Identifying a clear design problem is essential when facing a large array of design options.

Morphological Chart

A morphological chart is utilized to systematically generate and define design spaces.
It consists of a matrix format where the leftmost column lists all principal functions required for the design.
Key features necessary for the design should also be included in the chart.
The list of functions and features should be concise to maintain manageability and focus.
Consistency is critical; each entry in the chart should be at the same level of detail to facilitate effective comparisons.

Design Alternatives

Analogical thinking is highlighted as a significant method for developing alternative design solutions.
This approach draws inspiration from existing solutions in different contexts to innovate new designs.
