Golden Rules of Good Design

What makes good design? Over the years, designers and artists have been trying to capture the essentials of good design. They have found that some sayings can help people understand the ideas of good design. There are four as follows.

Less is more. This saying is 1 with the German-born architect Mies van der Rohe. In his Modernist view, beauty 2 in simplicity and elegance, and the aim of the designer is to create 3 to problems through the most efficient means. Design should avoid 4 decorations.

More is not a bore. The American-born architect Robert Venturi concluded that if simplicity is done badly, the result is soulless design. Post-Modernist designers began to experiment with decoration and color again. Product design was5 influenced by this view and can be seen in kitchen appliances such as ovens and kettles.

Fitness for purpose. Successful product design takes into consideration a product’s function, purpose, shape, form, color, and so on. The most important result for the user is that the product does what it is 6 for. For example, think of an adjustable desk lamp. It needs to be constructed from materials that will stand the heat of the lamp and regular 7 by the user. It also needs to be stable. Most importantly, it needs to 8 light where it is needed.

Form follows emotion. This phrase is associated with the German designer Hartmut Esslinger. He believes design must take into consideration the sensory side of our nature -- sight, smell, touch and taste. These are as important as rational(理性的). When 9 everyday products such as toothpaste, we 10 a cool-looking device that allows us to easily squeeze the toothpaste onto our brush.

【题目】 Countless people long to make a difference this holiday season, yet they don’t realize that opportunities(机遇) to make a difference are everywhere. Here are some ideas to get you started.

Organize a blank drive

It is cold outside, but imagine how thousands of homeless people may feel without a home of their own, or even a blanket to keep them from the cold. Organize a blank drive for your local homeless, and ask around for donations!

Practice random(随意的) acts of kindness

I’ll never forget the time when I went to pay for my Dr. Pepper, but the nurse stopped me, saying my bill was paid by an anonymous(匿名的) guest. It’s this random act of kindness that restores(恢复) my faith in humanity. Bless someone by paying for their drink at Starbucks, or praising them! If you live somewhere where it snows, shovel your neighbour’ssnow out of their driveway for them! Whether it is as simple as praise or as complex(复杂的) as paying the bill, you’ll never know how far your influence will reach.

Say thank-you

Just a simple thank-you can make someone’s day, especially if they feel like their work is never noticed. Cultivate(培养) a smile on their face by being sincere and thankful for all that they do.

Use your talents to help the community

The best way to show your thanks for people is by using the talents and skills you have to bless others. For me, I love to coordinate(协调) events and write, and so my way of reaching out to the community is through writing articles and creating awareness(意识) about problems we face today. If you can bake, make some delicious cookies for people to enjoy! If you can knit, put your talents to use by making clothes for children in foster care(寄养中心). Any talent can be used to help the community in meaningful ways.

Wish you a happy, healthy and helpful holiday season.
