Abstract
A taxonomy with types of information about robustness, reliability and safety was expanded to include information about the end effects of failures and successes of working principles. A visual approach was then developed to display these types of information in a single view regarding characteristics of individual concepts. The tool was seen as naïve against preferences and political factors, yet worked as reference for their decision and propositions of improvement. Moreover, the tool provided designers content for refining their judgment throughout the decision task, through which designers avoided the reappearance of failures while replicating successful characteristics when reusing designs.
