Design Is Cool

Posted on February 3, 2015 by Andy (Avraham) Blumenthal

Design 2
I took this photo of this Design logo on the side of a bag this guy was carrying. 



It is from the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum in NYC (and if I am ever back in town there, I’d like to go there).



I like this logo a lot…everything from DE*SIGN to all the descriptions of design and why it’s so important to us.



– “Design is art people use.” (Design is artisitic and creative)



– “Design is communication.” (A picture is worth a thousand words)



– “Design is the stuff around us.” (It’s practical and functional)



– “Design is a verb.” (Design is something we do from coming up with the concept to creating the end product)



– “Design is systems.” (Design is how we format and package and is integral to making the content easy to use and come alive)



– “Design is a way of thinking.” (Design is big-picture thinking that connects the dots)



– “Design is problem-solving.” (Design uses visualization to understand and think through process and problems). 



A good designer is invaluable and design is absolutely cool. 😉
