description Design is the ultimate creativity differentiator for a designer in producing much sought after jewellery creations in a highly competitive market. To achieve this, a designer should have a firm grasp concerning needs, science, technical knowledge, creativity, time frame and costing. With full understanding of the factors mentioned, the question hence emphasizes on if the design observes to the economics of production which in return provides added value to the customer. Therefore, a rigorous design process in an evolving economic consideration is crucial because a design process of an adornment should adhere to the acquiring capability of consumers’ reality. This study is aimed at developing a design process framework for jewellery designers as a guide to satisfying consumers’ needs. Focusing on jewellery design, the key objective of this research is classified under three domains; to identify the characteristics of jewellery products in relation to design and economics components, to formulate a design and economic framework model which act as functional guidelines for jewellery design industry and to integrate business thinking into jewellery design process.
