What is High Design

Wow guys, I lost track and this thread really grew with a lot of insightful comments.

A few other familiar design terms where brought up and like Democratic Design and Strategic Deign and High-Level Design. They mainly make me think of other buzz words like Ergonomic Design, and Inclusive Design, but they all seem to be related to methodologies and desired outcomes.

Makes me think of a Core 77 article that talks about types of design rather broadly (link below),with a focus on the designers intent.
