it's not design that we need to be worried about, we've had that on lock for the past century. it's the quality we need to rediscover.

I AM LEISURE.

and function might I add.

Too many designers and hip and young "design buying" crowd only buy high design stuff because of their aesthetics. To me, a piece of design can only be qualified as cutting edge, avantgarde and worthy if it balances form and function very well. A good example today of a designer that spends a lot of valuable time thinking about both form and function working together is Englishman Jonathan Ive.

I hate everything and everyone.
