I think it's especially true in performance related decision where design becomes an accessories, a nice to have thing. Although, if products are almost equally good, design will make a difference for sure.

Design has evolved beyond form giving. It is now form communications! Hi Michael,

You have highlighted a key point about design today. Design has evolved beyond form giving. It is now form communications!

I remember reading something about such brands, somethign like 'complexity behind elegant simplicty'.I guess thats what you get with massive R&D and marketing budgets! Apple is such a good example of this...I remember reading an article about Apple and how it has like the next 10-15 years or so of product lines already fleshed out according to marketing trends, expectations and the like. It may have been an interview with Ive's i'm not sure now. Now THAT is a company I would love to be a part of, or atleast have an insight into the workings and philosophy behind it all...

It seems liek common sense when you think about it, but I guess we never really thought about it in that way. I remember we would go along to department stores and take photos of the product lines (without the stores knowing...they didn't really appreciate us doing so) so we could superimpose images of our product on the shelves to see the impact it would have from the perspectiev of the consumer. Not a bad idea to really see how it manages to stand out (in a good way of course). This is a very interesting read…I remember one of my lecturers telling us this one day.
