Not all design is for the general good.

Designers may be the true intellectuals of the future.

In an ideal world, social responsibility would be a prerequisite for design, and designers would vow to produce beautiful, useful, positive, responsible, functional, and economical things and concepts that are meaningful additions to—or sometimes subtractions from—the world we live in. Indeed, design deserves such thoughtful consideration.

While an artist can choose whether or not to be responsive and responsible towards other human beings, by definition a designer must be.

I consider video games a form of design that is amazingly important today and that is going to become even more important in the future, because it is a way we interact with machines and screens.

I want people to understand that design is so much more than cute chairs - that it is first and foremost everything that is around us in our life.

Ugly design should be rejected, just like nonfunctional design is rejected, just like nonenvironmentally conscious design should be rejected. It's a value.
