I always think that every object has its life and it tells a story of a designer. This point of view is also agreed by Henry Ford which is the starter of Ford Car Manufacturing Corporation. When people see one product, they start thinking about the functions and whether it is good to look and use. Furthermore, some people might start thinking about the stories of the designers rather than start using them. Therefore, the whole process of manufacturing a product is such an important part of a product.
Going through the whole video, few points of views impressed me a lot. Firstly, a good design has to be innovative. Designing stuff involves a long road of designing, making, redesigning and doing a final product. If one final product that designed by someone looks common in every same kind of other products, it will be a tough thing for not only the designer himself, but also for the consumers. Innovative is an important part for a product and it decides the value of a product itself.
Secondly, making a product useful is crucial because once a product is hard to use, who will purchase? Useful stuffs always make the users happy to use and the time for a person to use will last longer than the poorly-designed stuff.
Followed by another important aspect is a good design is supposed to be aesthetic. People sometimes like the beautiful appearance rather than the functions themselves. For example, a girl who is young and do not really know what a good eraser should be in function, she might choose to purchase the one which is beautiful but not good in quality rather than the one with good quality but looks common.
Design confusion is a project that we did last week. A lot of design stuffs are confusing people and make the products hard for people to use in some ways. Thus, for every single product, it is important for the users to understand what it for.
I think every family has its own family heirloom. It might be a treasure thing or just a small comb.
We have found that those stuffs are all last long and good in quality. Therefore, a good and long last design should be produced to be long-lived. So, the material and the way to produce should be taken into consideration and to be important.
Nowadays, people concentrate on some environmental friendly materials to make the products. Also, the idea of less material with the best use is also promoted to the public and it raises people’s awareness across the world. Thus, some designs that fit the requirements are coming out more and more often.
Turning to another aspect, businessman keeps designer company every day. Once a product comes out, it has to be published to the purchasing market, so it is important to communicate to the people who are doing business.
Designing is about affect people and their life. So it should be effective and changeable.
