Good vs. Bad design
Good vs. Bad
design
Good Design is Goodwill- Paul Rand (1987)
How good is good?- Stefan Sagmeister (2004)
From both readings I mostly understood that
design is more and has more to do than just design itself- that is not just
about the visual looks. Just design is seen as decoration. But design can
enhance a whole lot of things, including environments, communications, products
and corporate identity. Therefore it is important that designers must study
much more than design. That could be society, economy, politics and culture. It
is also fundamental to understand history, and those who do so are able to find
continuum in that which was, which is and that which will be.
Although aesthetics and beauty takes a
great part in design, some people misinterpret that design is all about looks
and focuses on just making it visually attractive. It is true that most of the
people prefer the fancy to the plain. However it equivalently has to work well
and be practical too. Designers have to consider whom he or she is designing
for and work out the client’s practical needs. Design has to satisfy the idea
and form. However how the designer does it is not limited. Practically there is
no official authorization or accreditation required and no stated frame of
knowledge that must be studied to be a designer, meaning that anyone could be
one.
Lastly a close relationship between the
designer and the management produces a high quality and meaningful design. Nevertheless,
it is hard to maintain a good relationship between the designer and the
management as their aims and goals are different. Advertising executives and
managers gives great importance on costs and profits. Thus it is important to
balance both opinions.
