RR03

When thinking about objects, I don't really consider how it was made or about the designer. Then after reading Heskett I realized that every single thing was designed. That there was some sort of design process that they went through before I bought this object. These 'objects' can be something as simple as a pen to something more complex as a high-speed train. Now that I have read this I take a second look at certain things and try to relate to what the designer was trying to achieve. Communications is used everywhere, every single sign was designed by someone. I think this is a very important part of design, because with every culture overlapping communications has a sense of globalization. The environments brings objects and communications together. Using spacial elements, giving added emphasis to their functionality and significance. This really makes or breaks the design, the lighting is key. If you can not see the design then what good is it!
