04 - design criteria
please don't send in vague concepts, but go a step further.

the designs must satisfy the following four criteria:

1. original / innovative design
they should not look like any existing designs.

2. attractive design
they should have popular, aesthetic appeal.

3. heat output
a good heat output can be achieved when the total surface area of all the radiator components is at least 1m2.

4. low manufacturing cost
uncomplicated designs are cheaper to manufacture and are therefore more likely to sell in quantity.
