Old stuff

Philipe Starck- facet

Poetry in reduction
Design for everyone
Simple
Fuction in design
No ordimentation
See that movement is possible
Affordances: very direct-
Flow gravity shows through the facet angle
Sees himself as a printer
Handle- how thick- how tight-
Details make or break the design   
Wants to kill design by giving it away

Jonathan Ive
Apple
Removing the unnecessary
Silver color- necessary to make the computer serious
Different color early was to separate themselves from PC- for a individual
Etched logo- expensive – makes a first impression

Yves Behar

“Designer s have a responsibility to show the future as the want it to be –or at least as it can be, not just the way an industry wants to be.”
Not speaking the language of business, offering his designs

Mini motion watch
Tells the story of driving


Frog
Form follows emotion
We bring beauty to your bottom line

Birkenstock footprints
Cork sole
Window to the cork sole
George Nelson
’50s and ‘60s furniture
