A design apparatus includes a first processor that determines outer dimensions of the to-be-designed apparatus on a basis of a specifications information input via an input device and the dimension rules stored by a storage. And the design apparatus further includes a second processor that determines, when one of unit candidates stored by the storage is selected as a unit to be installed in the to-be-designed apparatus in accordance with the specification information input via the input device, a placement position of the selected unit in the to-be-designed apparatus having the outer dimensions determined by the first processor on a basis of the placement rules stored by the storage and associated with a type of the selected unit. |
