Conceptual design is the early phase of a design or engineering process where broad ideas, requirements, and possible solutions are explored and evaluated before detailed development begins. It focuses on defining the overall approach, functionality, and feasibility of a product or system rather than specific technical details. Engineers, architects, and product designers use conceptual design to establish direction and identify potential challenges before committing resources to detailed design.
