General Design

To be honest, this is my first blog entry ever. As it being my first and being a design student at UC Daivs I am going to focus on design in society. Throughout my blogs, I am going to establish what design is to me and look forward to how my perception of design changes and grows.

The world is one big design, know matter where we look or go it surrounds us. From a poster on the wall to the building we live in is a creation of someone’s. So, who are the people of design? In one word it’s everyone; we are a society of variation and expression. To some design is about function ability and others it’s about the out of the ordinary. While our lives evolve around design, there is so much that we look past never taking the time to appreciate and understand what design really is. If asked to explain what design is in one word, how would you reply. Is it interesting, emotion, creative, materialistic, inspiring, or is it even possible to describe in one word. Although the dictionary can help us understand what this word means, it doesn’t tell us what design is. And who says if art is art or if that dress is fashionable.

And so the journey begins what is Design? How does it influence us? What do we mean when we say Design in Society?
