What is judge fitness for purpose?Show answer
A design question almost always rewards a judgement about how well the design works. Say whether the design is fit for purpose and why: this packaging protects the product and stands out on a shelf, so it is fit for purpose; this chair looks striking but the thin legs may be unstable, so its function is questionable. A balanced, evidence-based judgement scores more than uncritical praise.
