Design
My dad drove past that eye sore on Perrineville Road, as I sat in the passenger's seat, and I thought about my idea(s) on design. My first year professor, in graduate school, said to me, "simple means something similar as complex and simplistic means something similar as complicated." Some designers don't (can't) think deeply enough to express their ideas in a form, so he or she adds a bunch of shit to make whatever he or she designs, look "prettier". We have had this idea jammed in to our subconscious since birth. Thoughtless people inhabit complicated design, because complicated design, sometimes, has a bigger size than something designed well. Well not, necessarily, thoughtless people. Most people have difficulty finding something they like, in the proper location. Suburbia and castle-like shit constantly clouds our minds. We see this crap in everyday life. Bad design makes up the world. A stupid person thinks complicated design looks pretty. Intelligent people (I think) have an attraction to simple, good, design. In my opinion, good design would make everyone, on the planet, smarter. Just think how intelligent you and I would become if simple design inundated our minds, since birth?
