Good design...jeez.

So? What is good design? Should I know? Do I know? Most days I feel as though I know just
enough to be dangerous as a designer lol.

So what is good design to me? Is it a product that saves lives in the Intensive Care unit? Is it the
new thingamabob that makes Target a million billion dollars? ...or is it that one thing I bought
ten years ago that still does it's intended function without crapping out on me? Huh, it's kinda
hard to define isn't it?

Good design.....well...if I have to pick three here they are.

1.) Velcro - better than tape because it works again and again.


2.) Coffee cup lid - keeps the coffee off my lap, allows me to open or close the spout, one
piece design. And they let me in the library with it :)




3.) Gas pump lever catch - being able to pump gas, check the oil, and do the
windows...excellent!

Call me practical but these are some good things folks.
