Morphology
The meaning is directly compositional: 'design' specifies the domain (planning or blueprinting) and 'criteria' means standards or rules, so 'design criteria' straightforwardly means standards for design. This noun-noun linking pattern is common and predictable across languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the phrase's meaning.
Etymology
Design criteria is like a checklist pinned to a drawing. The word design is the plan and criteria are the rules the plan must meet, so the phrase means the 'standards' a designer must satisfy.
