Every human product occurs as the consequence of a design process. The concept of design and design process generally accepted as similar or little differences in the context of interdisciplinary studies. This article aims to discuss the design process as a philosophical and conceptual concept from the pre-modern era to now by focusing on generated theories’ outputs. This article shows us the design process itself is examined independently from the final products under the discipline of design methodology. In design methodology studies, continuity of design process, prevention of the mistakes or decreasing the mistakes to the minimum levels during the design process and prevention of repetitions and delays aimed to be solved. The article says thanks to these benefits of design process’ studies, more qualified products created, and design processes developed positively.
