Who would have thought that design creates so many questions. We are surrounded by design, not only in buildings, but landscapes and human beings also. Without knowing it we are designing things constantly. In my case it may be the way I place furniture around the house, plan a meal, lay it on the plate, the way I dress and even my daily walk.

Excellent essay in answer to the difficult question, “What is good design?” It’s more than just the visual element.

A design or process of design is a complex matter.

It's function, intended for the user.

It's intrinsic value to user, observer.

It's cost to customer.

It's serviceable, can be maintained, restored
