    Design process is just like building a house.

    When you first start looking for a house, you consider the area, the schools, the environment in general. Before you begin to design, you have to have a general idea of the company or product you are designing for or designing.

    Once the area/company info is established, you begin to look at floor plans. How do you want the house to look inside, what do you want to be included? What do you want your design to convey, what message are you trying to get across?

    After figuring out the layout of the house/purpose of your design, you begin designing. Homeowners begin to look at the different option they want. What kind of brick? What kind of carpet? Do they want to upgrade or not? Basically, they begin to design the visual aspect of the house. How it looks. Designers begin to design the aesthetics of the logo or ad. How do they want to catch the viewer's attention and get their message across?

    In short the design process starts out with research about the company (area of home), deciding the message needed to convey (layout of home), presentation (visual aspect of house).

    There are many steps to the design process. I decided to focus on the prototyping aspect.

    These are photos of the same car from original drawing, to full-scale model, to final product.

    This image shows (quite simply) the efforts in designing and distributing a new model vehicle.
