Much of the information used within design and technology will be subjective because much of what we design will be to satisfy the demands of clients, customers, etc. You need to apply //**value**// judgments. **//Values//** is not just value for money, but can be the values of different types of people, that can cause conflict, for instance between young and old people: Clearly your opinions would differ to other peoples, particularly with respect to age and needs. Designers need to make judgments about how to resolve conflicts and find compromise solutions. It is very difficult to satsify the demands for all people. Society is increasingly demanding and consumes an increasing amount of resources.
