To whom does design address itself: to the greatest number, to the specialist of an enlightened matter, to a privileged social class? Design addresses itself to the need.
Design is a plan for arranging elements in such a way as best to accomplish a particular purpose.
In architecture the idea degenerated. Design allows a more direct and pleasurable route.
Choose your corner, pick away at it carefully, intensely and to the best of your ability and that way you might change the world.
The details are not the details. They make the design.
Recognizing the need is the primary condition for design.
