The term feels to big—too much as assessment of worth. We think things that are “designed” must look good. But design is, simply, the process of making decisions about how things are made—their size, shape, materials, and so on… Whenever we make a choice about how a thing is made—how it looks, how it operates, how it is put together—we are engaging in the process of design.
For the most part, you shouldnâ??t notice designâ?Š Everything should be elegant and beautiful but the second someone says, â??Hey, thatâ??s blue. I like blue.â? Instead of, â??Hey, this helps me do that.â? You care too much for the aesthetics.
