"Design is not art" in a sense that while design tries to sell a product, art sells just itself. Fine. However, it's a very broad generalization that can be easily proven wrong. A great design sells both the product and itself. Some Jaguar models come to mind, or the Eiffel Tower as another example. If you think the Eiffel Tower is not functional, I have another one for you: The Shard in London, one of my favorite buildings, is more of a work of art than just a skyscraper. Design should be functional, but it doesn't mean it shouldn't be a work of art if it sells well.
