With no tension or stress, I evaluated the third design which was very easy as I had been doing it for all the designs. Personally, I liked evaluating the design because for me the third design was the best and had lots of different ideas that I wanted to speak about in the evaluation. The evaluation just took me about 45 minutes in which I was able to evaluate the design against the design specs thoroughly and with full focus allowing me to explain nicely with appropriate reasoning's. After that was the most difficult part of design stage according to me, which was to choose a design for my final product and justify my choice. It was very difficult and challenging to choose one of the designs as all were of good quality and all seemed nice to me. Although, I considered many things before making my final decision such as resources available, design specs, whether it is simple or hard to make etc. I also took the help of my client (My mum) to help me choose a design that she personally liked and why. For the justification, I wrote why I chose that design, why I didn't choose the others and the improvements that I would like to make to my chosen design. Atlas, I was done with design stage eventually making up my mind that I will go with design 1. I used my decision-making, evaluating and justifying skills to help me work with the remaining tasks today. Next lessons, we will be starting off with our plan stage.
