More From Gerhard Richter

When we think of design, we usually imagine things that are chosen because they are designed. vases or comic books or architecture... it turns out, though, that most of what we make or design is actually aimed at a public that is there for something else. the design is important, but the design is not the point. call it "public design"... public design is for individuals who have to fill out our tax form, interact with our website or check into our hotel room despite the way it's designed, not because of it.
Book Thinking Design
Let go of your worries let go of your worries and be completely clear-hearted, like the face of a mirror that contains no images. if you want a clear mirror, behold yourself and see the shameless truth, which the mirror reflects. if metal can be polished to a mirror-like finish, what polishing might the mirror of the heart require? between the mirror and the heart is this single difference: the heart conceals secrets, while the mirror does not.
Letting Go Wisdom Truth
I had a parakeet that used to fly around the house and crash into these huge mirrors my mother put in. ever heard of this interior design principle, that a mirror makes it seem like you have an entire other room? what kind of jerk walks up to a mirror and goes, hey look, there's a whole other room in there. there's a guy that looks just like me in there.

Design is the method of putting form and content together. design, just as art, has multiple definitions; there is no single definition. design can be art. design can be aesthetics. design is so simple, that's why it is so complicated.

Four. that's what i want you to remember. if you don't get your idea across in the first four minutes, you won't do it. four sentences to a paragraph. four letters to a word. the most important words in the english language all have four letters. home. love. food. land. peace. . .i know peace has five letters, but any damn fool knows it should have four.
