Thanks for the "design is the opposite of everything else a designer doesn't
do to earn a living." Glenn :)
Hi
Initially I would like to define design as boring as any human endeavor wich
results in something created with
any material imaginable.
For a "design" to become art I guess it has to mean a lot to us. Something
we truly cheerish in the profoundest sense. Something which helps wants them
to continue living, gives them hope and an experience of the beauty of the
world and a sense of meaning.
Art is goosebumps :) Few things "designed" give us goosebumps, those that
do, are designed by true artists.
Best
N.
