妥当性の検証は，表示系デザイン（パッケージデザイン）２件をモチーフとして実施した。
I find this a bit cryptic if motif is used in the sense of 'visual motif'. Is it perhaps used here to mean subject/topic.

motif
From the reference below: "Motif® is the industry standard graphical user interface, (as defined by the IEEE 1295 specification), used on more than 200 hardware and
software platforms. It provides application developers, end users, and system vendors with the industry's most widely used environment for
standardizing application presentation on a wide range of platforms. Motif is the leading user interface for the UNIX® based operating system. "
