Vision Needs a Design
Every idea, every vision can only
Be experienced when it is expressed
In form, picture, object, colour, sound,
Word and more.
Design is the coordination of this all
Design is communication in itself
Design is orientation in an increasingly complex world
Design is part of the power to change the world
Design needs a vision
From another perspective
Design is part of the power to change the world
Change gets faster, Design too
Is fast design wasteful
Our fast world desperately needs a vision of what design can do.
