Design Guidelines from FastCo:
It should arise from a story about what design means in the context of innovation. It should be a form drawn from a viewpoint about what innovation is. As a guideline, the awards were judged on six dimensions: business impact, beauty, originality, functionality, social impact, and depth of user insight.
