Re: Design Philosophy

From the other answers I see on here it seems like this is a challenging question but Ill give it my best shot.


For me design should not be about how you personally express yourselves it’s more so about how your design communicates a problem or the solution to the problem. Aesthetics while visually appealing do not communicate the ultimate goal; it’s just a speck in how I need something to function and without the ability to function properly the design is crap (for lack of a better word). The core of what we do as designers to solve a problem. Of course we all want to make a design visually appealing and we all want to make it different from other designers but what good is it if something looks nice but the ability to function is not there. As designers we are the gap between the needs of the people and their understanding of how business communicate with the world.




Here's a slide share I saw on the topic.
