adesign solution...
A design solution most of the time is a tangible creation or recreation. Even when it is a service or experience or process there is a perceptible 'difference' that is new or difference was not there before. But this new entity rearranges the interconnections within a complex situation in such a way that there is a transformation of the situation itself without undue pressure on reforming people, policing them, recreating new systems altogether and so on. Design could throw up the most cost effective of solutions to large complex problems problems.
