Abstract
A multi-attribute design procedure results in relatively large number of Pareto optimal designs. Since every design is also defined by a set of parameters it is necessary to establish relations between design parameters and design attributes. The multi-dimensional space is visualised through 2-dimensional window. The same view is tried with variable colour for different strata and with variable symbol size and colour. The hyper-surface of multi-attribute designs may be visualized through stratified symbols, the number of strata should be about five and the size of graphical sign diameter is best varied according to the modified Renard series.
