Abstract

Functionality is a criterion for judging the value of design and is prevalent in all kinds of design criticism. The direct object of design criticism is the design work, and design practice is the basis of design criticism. Design criticism must be based on an in-depth analysis of the design work, and a deep feeling and accurate grasp of the work is the starting point for design criticism. By analyzing the unreasonable problems that exist in the application of the design of plug-in boards in everyday life and finding actual cases where the unreasonable problems have been solved, the theoretical value of design criticism can be reflected, with a view to promoting the healthy development of design creation.
