A central mechanism to advance the design process, inviting constructive feedback on concepts from teachers, clients, stakeholders, or peers
- The open critique of shared work is a unique feature of design and related creative fields.
- Lerman outlines a series of steps with specified roles of the artist or designer, responders, and a facilitator:
- Statements of Meaning: Responders indicate what they found meaningful, interesting, or remarkable about the work.
- Designer Questions: The designer asks questions of the responders. Responders may provide opinions only in direct response to questions.
- Neutral Questions: Responders ask neutral questions of the designer; for example, rather than “Why did you choose red?” they would ask, “What informed your choice of colors?”
- Permissioned Opinions: Responders state, “I have an opinion about _______. Would you like to hear it?” The designer has the option of saying yes or no.
