I found the Dieter Rams "What is Good Design" article very informative on what design encompasses and what constitutes good design which helped me choose my five well designed objects. The different objects that were pictured illustrated that design can be a part of things other than pages in a magazine or on a website. The descriptions gave clear and concise defenses for why each aspect of design was important and relevant. The quote “an impenetrable confusion of forms, colours and noises” from the article really resonated with me because it illustrates the effect that design can have on the world and its ability to shape our culture as well as the responsibility designers have to shape it in a positive way.
