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.
