'''Design''' is used both as a noun and a verb. The term is often tied to the various applied arts and engineering. As a verb, "to design" refers to the [[process]] of originating and developing a plan for a product, [[structure]], [[system]], or component with [[intention]][1]. As a noun, "a design" is used for either the final (solution) plan (e.g. proposal, drawing, [[model]], description) or the result of implementing that plan in the form of the final product of a design process[2]. This classification aside, in its broadest sense no other limitations exist and the final product can be anything from socks and jewellery to graphical user interfaces and charts. Even virtual [[concepts]] such as corporate [[identity]] and cultural [[tradition]]s such as celebration of certain holidays[3] are sometimes designed. More recently, processes (in general) have also been treated as products of design, giving new [[meaning]] to the term "process design".
