Design Need
◦ Functionality before Reliability. The design of your
product must meet basic functional needs even
before being able to perform consistently.
◦ Later, Usability comes in to play—making a
product easy to use.
◦ Creativity is one of the last aspects of design—if
you don’t have a useable, reliable, functional
product, it won’t matter how beautiful it is—it
won’t be a reliable place for your constituents to
be.
