'design-related' originates from the English word 'design' combined with the suffix '-related', where 'design' meant 'a plan or drawing produced to show the look and function of a building, garment, or other object before it is made.'

'design' changed from the Old French word 'desseign' and eventually became the modern English word 'design'.

Initially, 'design' meant 'a plan or intention', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'a plan or drawing produced to show the look and function of a building, garment, or other object before it is made.'
