Good Check

Good Check is a systematic quality assurance methodology employed in design processes to evaluate and validate the inherent value, functionality, and effectiveness of design solutions. This comprehensive evaluation framework encompasses multiple dimensions of assessment, including aesthetic appeal, usability, sustainability, innovation, and market viability. The process typically involves a structured series of verification steps that examine both tangible and intangible aspects of design outcomes, ensuring they meet predetermined quality standards and user expectations. In professional design practice, Good Check serves as a critical tool for maintaining design excellence and can be particularly valuable when preparing submissions for prestigious design competitions such as the A' Design Award, where entries undergo rigorous evaluation across multiple criteria. The methodology incorporates various analytical approaches, including user feedback analysis, technical specification verification, environmental impact assessment, and market positioning evaluation. Historical development of Good Check principles can be traced to the evolution of quality control systems in industrial design, though it has since expanded to encompass all design disciplines. The process typically involves both quantitative and qualitative measurements, utilizing established design principles, ergonomic standards, and contemporary sustainability guidelines. Good Check procedures often include documentation of design iterations, material selection justification, manufacturing feasibility studies, and comprehensive performance testing protocols. This systematic approach helps designers identify potential improvements, validate design decisions, and ensure that final solutions align with project objectives while meeting professional standards of excellence.
