    • ]]>     Ten principles for good design by Braun’s industrial designer Dieter Rams:

    Dieter Rams' Design Principles

    • Good design is innovative.
    • Good design makes a product useful.
    • Good design is aesthetic.
    • Good design makes a product understandable.
    • Good design is unobtrusive.
    • Good design is honest.
    • Good design has longevity.
    • Good design is consequent down to the last detail.
    • Good design is environmentally friendly.
    • Good design is as little design as possible.

    It is surprising that all of these principles still make sense if we understand humanity as the pinnacle of God’s design. I think they resonate with the bible on how we humans should be.

    It is because God’s design is good design. Indeed, tov meod (very good) design.
