Multipurpose Design

Multipurpose Design is a concept which focuses on the creation of a product or a platform which can be used for multiple applications or purposes. It is a language-agnostic approach which focuses on the development of a product or platform which is capable of being used or applied in different scenarios. This design philosophy helps to make a product more efficient and usable, while also saving costs by eliminating the need for separate versions of the product. It is also a form of design which allows user to customize the product or platform as required. This form of design is especially advantageous when it comes to creating products or platforms which can be used in different countries or different contexts.

Adaptability, Scalability, Customization, Versatility.
