Dear Friend,
What is the point of design? Sometimes I think about this. With Christmas coming, people are constantly buying and selling things that they neither need nor consume. But instead, most of these waste will be disposed of. Should I care about the world now or the way that it becomes in the future? I contemplate this as I look at the designers today and the designs that are being developed. Many designers cut corners and motivate themselves by the mighty dollar. Maybe I'm backwards but when did the mighty dollar represented happiness.
Then there's the other side. Designers who claims to be changing the world. Who always believes that their designs are important research. Even if it is, no one's using it and no one's really caring. So if at the end, their products become a self indulgence, is it still a good design? I hope to be neither of the two. I want to create timeless designs that can sell and do something good in the world. I want to design the future. I want people to want to buy and use my design.
Sincerely,
LS
