“Good design goes to heaven; bad design goes everywhere.”



Dieter Rams: 10 Timeless Commandments for Good Design
Who is Dieter Rams, first of all? Dieter Rams is a German industrial designer who was responsible for the design of Braun’s consumer products for many years. About 50 years ago, in his quest to answer the question “Is my design a good design?”, he developed the 10 principles of good design, sometimes also known as 10 commandments. It’s amazing to see how valid these principles are today, so much that we might feel than even more than back then, when Rams actually wrote them!
According to Dieter Rams, good design:
  1. Is innovative
  2. Makes a product useful
  3. Is aesthetic
  4. Makes a product understandable
  5. Is unobtrusive
  6. Is honest
  7. Is long-lasting
  8. Is thorough down to the last detail
  9. Is environmentally friendly
  10. Involves as little design as possible

“Everything is design. Everything!”

Wherever you may go and whatever you may see, design will always be there. May it be from posters, walls, tables, chairs, mugs, chandeliers, banners, phones, computers, shoes, clothes and the list go on but the mere fact stays that everything is designed. If you want something done for your product, service, brand or business, then the best approach would be to find a designer because they are the ones who design everything that you can see. I, as a designer, focused my craft majorly in logo design and graphic design. I just find it more into what I can and want to do, that even the software I use to create these designs are also akin to my skills.
