The power of good design

In the late 1970s, Dieter Rams was becoming increasingly interested in the world of things that surrounded him – “an impenetrable confusion of forms, colours and noises.” As a designer, Rams was aware that he played an important role in the world he was helping create, he asked himself an important question: is my design good design? Good design is subjective and can't necessarily be measured. However Rams attempted to express what he believed to be the most important principles for design.

Here is a brief overview: • Good design is innovative • Good design makes a product useful • Good design is aesthetic • Good design makes a product understandable • Good design is unobtrusive • Good design is honest • Good design is long-lasting • Good design is thorough down to the last detail • Good design is environmentally-friendly • Good design is as little design as possible.

These principles have become iconic and have inspired designers across the world. The power of good design.

At Blueprint it is often acknowledged what Rams has done for the world of design. Rams has shown the world form vs function, the mountain that is climbed to make a product look timeless and a designers role to thoroughly investigate every detail before an object hits the shelves. pic.twitter.com/F71WvtKcOC
