54. “I actually did the work on
the paper,” [Feynman] said.
“Well,” Weiner said, “the work
was done in your head, but
the record of it is still here.”
“No, it’s not a record, not
really. It’s working. You have
to work on paper and this is
the paper. Okay?”

64. What is art’s

93. Dieter Ram’s Principles
Good Design:
• Is innovative
• Makes a product useful
• Is aesthetic
• Makes a product understandable
• Is unobtrusive
• Is honest
• Is long-lasting
• Is thorough down to the last detail
• Is environmentally friendly
• Is as little design as possible
94. What makes good
principles?
• They describe your future
outcome(s)
• Separately they can be for
anyone … but …
• Combined they can only
describe you.
• They are NOT about your
process, or your team’s
ethos.
