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.

Not all design is for the general good.

Elegance in objects is everybody’s right, and it shouldn’t cost more than ugliness.

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.

Designers stand between revolutions and everyday life. They’re able to grasp momentous changes in technology, science, and society and convert those changes into objects and ideas that people can understand.

Designers may be the true intellectuals of the future.

The idea of being able to build things bottom up, atom by atom, has made [scientists] all into tinkerers. And all of a sudden scientists are seeking designers, just like designers are seeking scientists.
