Philosophy of design is concerned with the question “what is the purpose of design?”
Aristotle proposed four causes, four types of answers to the question “why”, and Heidegger showed that Aristotle four causes showed that Aristotle’s four causes differed from one another
(Gregor and Jone, 2007).
# C''ausa materialis'' is the material or matter.

# ''Causa finalis'' is the end.
# ''Causa efficiens'' is the effect that is finished.

Design theory involves examining design as a concept. A number of
scholars in information systems research have examined the concept of

artifacts. There are differing opinions about what constitutes design
