Five Ideas and Quotes from "What is a designer : things places messages"

1. design : ‘a plan conceived in the mind’ (chapter 1)
- It’s really simple but clear sentence. Design is creating new things. Thus, I think that it arise from imagination -mind.
2. all designers should know roughly what their colleagues do (chapter 1)
- For designers, observing each other is very helpful. If designers know other designers’ own thinking and share good ideas, they can get a lot of benefits. In addition, their work can be done more effectively and they can make a good decision.
3. a designer works through and for other people and is concerned primarily with their problems rather than his own. (chapter 2)
- A designer should think other people who might use his design in the future. That’s a difference between artists and designers. While most artists work for their own satisfaction, designers should concern people’s problem rather than their own and suggest a solution like a doctor.
4. At every stage of design there will be discussion, questions and argument. (chapter 2)
- A good design comes from numerous questions and discussion. Lots of questions and answers bring potential alternatives and designers can approach the best result through discussing with colleagues and clients.
5. a design work is ten per cent inspiration and ninety per cent fairly hard work. (chapter 2)
- Hard work is required for designers than any other jobs. Professional skills, various ideas, researches about that and other processes are needed. It takes much time and efforts.
