Unusualness is an obvious aspect of creativity. It is judged by comparing the product being judged to existing norms for such a product. If a product is really unusual the emotional response of judges will be surprise.

Appropriateness takes its meaning from, and can only be judged within a particular context. When a product demonstrates unique appropriateness it creates satisfaction in the observer. (Appropriateness = good fit. Like finding the right greeting card.)

Transformation: In any field of human activity there are rules and constraints within which one must operate. When a product demonstrates unique transformation, the response of the observer is stimulation.

Condensation refers to the simplicity (summary power) of a product. When a product demonstrates condensation, judges savor the result. (saves time and money)
