3 December 2020 Ron Johnson Design works if it’s authentic, inspired, and has a clear point of view. It can’t be a collection of input.
3 December 2020 Douglas Wilson I gave the couple a hint of a design that would work great with the bones of their home. They weren’t ready for it, and they embarrassed themselves and that’s too bad.
3 December 2020 Malcolm Mclaren Through all aspects of society be it art, design, the financial markets, government, technology or communications we are witnessing unprecedented global transformation – the result of which is impossible to predict.
3 December 2020 John Tenniel By means of tracing-paper I transfer my design to the wood and draw on that.
3 December 2020 Michael Arad I really appreciate artists of the 20th century, and I can see a lot of their influence on my work, but to suggest that my design only fits within an ‘ism’ kind of bothers me.
3 December 2020 Tadao Ando When I design buildings, I think of the overall composition, much as the parts of a body would fit together. On top of that, I think about how people will approach the building and experience that space.
3 December 2020 Kevin Kelly Species go extinct because there are historical contraints built into a given body or a given design.
3 December 2020 Dorothy Dunnett You all know that each title in the Chronicles has a chess theme that’s partly because of the overall design of the Chronicles themselves – the game of chess as an analogue of the game of life.
3 December 2020 Alexander McQueen I come from a different era and I design clothes for our era. I think of people I want to dress when I design.
3 December 2020 Leo Fender The design of each element should be thought out in order to be easy to make and easy to repair.
3 December 2020 Genevieve Gorder It’s about the power of design and the power of the human spirit. It’s above paying anybody to do something stupid for money like reality television does – like ambushing people.
3 December 2020 Bjarne Stroustrup After all, C++ isn’t a perfect match for Java’s design aims either.
3 December 2020 Len Wein I became an art major, took every art class my school had to offer. In college, I majored in Advertising Art and Design.
3 December 2020 Donna Karan Design is a constant challenge to balance comfort with luxe, the practical with the desirable.
3 December 2020 Genevieve Gorder I think taking design out of the studio and really having a relationship with the people that you’re making it for really convinced me of how powerful a thing design is. It’s not just an aesthetic decoration.
3 December 2020 Calvin Klein People who run a ready-to-wear company are businessmen rather than production or design people.
3 December 2020 Kellan Lutz What I’ve learned from different designers is that it’s key to be true to who you are and your vision. That’s always been my line of thinking. Working through the whole design process, I don’t want to create something I wouldn’t be proud to wear.
3 December 2020 Jack Reed If we don’t have accurate information, if we are not able to tell difficult truth one to another, we will never be able to effectively design a policy for Iraq.
3 December 2020 Douglas Wilson I look at each episode in two ways – from a design standpoint and from an entertainment standpoint – this is TV, after all. We usually succeed on at least one of the levels.
3 December 2020 Ron Ben-Israel We used to be referred to as bakers and then we became known as cake decorators and now we are known as cake designers. I teach at the French Culinary Institute in New York and cake design is a legitimate profession.
3 December 2020 James Randolph Adams Great designers seldom make great advertising men, because they get overcome by the beauty of the picture – and forget that merchandise must be sold.
3 December 2020 Isaac Mizrahi This is what I like about being a designer: You can’t really get it until you see it.
3 December 2020 Jonathan Ive Design is a word that’s come to mean so much that it’s also a word that has come to mean nothing.
3 December 2020 John Dyer While I was at college studying design I decided to paint. I was also greatly inspired by the colours that I had seen on my travels in the Brazilian Rain forest.
3 December 2020 Robert Moog My training as an engineer has enabled me to design the stuff, but the reason I do it is not to make music but for the opportunity to work with musicians.
3 December 2020 Andrew Wyeth It’s all in how you arrange the thing… the careful balance of the design is the motion.
