## Abstract It is wellβknown that the number of designs with the parameters of a classical design having as blocks the hyperplanes in __PG__(__n, q__) or __AG__(__n, q__), __n__β₯3, grows exponentially. This result was extended recently [D. Jungnickel, V. D. Tonchev, Des Codes Cryptogr, published on
In this paper the number of directions determined by a set of q&n points of AG(2, q) is studied. To such a set we associate a curve of degree n and show that its linear components correspond to points that can be added to the set without changing the set of determined directions. The existence of li
