Subclass of:

• lrmoo:F1 Work

Scope note:

This class comprises combinations of concepts found in creative expressions, such as drawings, sketches, diagrams, plans, descriptions, 3D representations etc, which together form an overall concept for a design. An instance of CC13 Design Concept is a complex set of ideas that is proposed as the intellectual response to a certain, projected creative aim, that may be documented as an instance of CC6 Programme, expressing the latter as particular creative design proposals. The CC13 Design Concept is typically elaborated by an actor in the role of ‘Maitrise d’Oeuvre’ through different design documents (instances of CC1 Model) that represent various aspects of the overall idea. The substance of CC13 Design Concept is ideas. 

An instance of CC13 Design Concept is complex by nature as it interacts with the set of requirements typically expressed in an instance of CC6 Programme, which concretizes the requirements set out by an instance of CC17 Projective Requirements. It is articulated through various documents expressing different collective proposals that will go through processes of selection and filtering. In the normal case, one of these proposals will be selected as satisfying the CC17 Projective Requirements expressed in a CC6 Programme and serve as the accepted instance(s) of CC1 Model that expresses the final CC13 Design Concept.

Examples:

• The design concept proposed by Daniel Libeskind expressed in the winning proposal (CC1) for the competition to design the One World Trade Centre, based on the program (CC6) articulated by the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation (E74). (https://untappedcities.com/2014/11/04/the-nyc-that-never-was-1-wtc-and-the-competition-for-the-world-trade-center-site/) 
• The design concept created by Rodin (E21) for the sculpture entitled “The Gates of Hell” (CC20), in which straight lines are intersected asymmetrically by human figures, realised by the model (CC1) known as “the third maquette”, currently held by the Rodin Museum, Philadelphia (E74) (https://frenchsculpture.org/index.php/Detail/objects/30120)

In First Order Logic:
