um. duh.
of course it would be design--because we know that we designed it.
however, it still doesn't help ID, in the sense that the dude who is supposed to have designed us can't be found. Nor is he very intelligent for that matter, if we are all actually designed. you would think that a backbone meant for walking on all fours (like a dog) would be redesigned to handle the stresses of bipedal motion. I guess he thought we should all suffer back problems.
and what do you mean by "consciousness"? That the item, or organism, has a "conscious", as in knowing whats right and wrong. Or, that the item/organism is aware of its surroundings?
If you mean the former, still doesn't help ID, because most organisms don't recognize wrong from right, like bacteria. However, bacteria are aware of their environment. This study is talking about the former--in order for one to sue for abuse, one must be able to tell right from wrong. In the end, then, you are arguing for ID for a limited number of organisms. I thought all were designed?
