Abstract: Every historical era has tried to comprehend the phenomenon of design. Today, design penetrates all spheres of life, becoming an indispensable component of the culture of society. The socio-philosophical study of the "analytics of the presence" of a person in the world as the basis of the design arrangement of existence involves the comprehension of design as a catalyst for the creation of a harmonious object space, which is a condition for the formation of a creative personality and its meta-needs as the highest values of existence. Purpose of the study The main purpose of the article is to determine the directions and patterns of the formation of the philosophy of design as the harmonization of the object world of relationships between a person, the environment and other structural and functional components of design. Research methods. The methodological foundations of the study of design as a factor in harmonizing the objective world are the following methods: synergetic; phenomenological; system-structural; system-synergetic approach to design creativity. The primary tasks of a designer in the philosophical sense are to create the beauty of the human environment without harming the environment. It has been proven that the development of design is associated with the development of specific human activity, which qualitatively changes the existence of a person in the world, complicates and rapidly expands design activity. The complex of social forces essential for understanding design is formed by various factors, both material and spiritual. Design develops in the additivity of such sciences as philosophical anthropology, sociology, cultural studies, art history, technical aesthetics, ethnoculture, philosophy of history, i.e. it is considered by many sciences, since progress affects almost all sciences. That is why an adequate analysis of design and the identification of all its productive aspects can be the key to solving acute theoretical and practical problems of the entire socio-humanitarian sphere: progressive changes in social life, human self-affirmation in creative goal-setting activities, and become the fundamental basis for the establishment of the humanitarian paradigm. Conclusion Modern design philosophy should become a philosophy of survival in a new spiritual and practical space. In the globalised world, design performs the function of monitoring the compliance of the principles of human activity with the realities of life, so design should develop in accordance with the changes taking place in the world. human self-realisation in design creativity occurs through the individual's finding his or her own uniqueness in the spiritual essence. Technocratic design develops in the context of social space, which is a fundamental form of human existence and includes all the conditions and resources of their socio-cultural activities.
