Good design is not a commodity. Surely Apple has taught us all that. Even if the average big company sees something good and thinks "we should do this," odds are they'll fuck up.
- citricsquid 16y agoI won't argue with you as I don't have any real world business experience (at least any that could count as something to back up my point) but I think it's an extraordinary gamble, but that's how you make money I guess, big risks mean big rewards...
- grinich 16y agoGood design requires understanding the problem at a much deeper level. A big company can rip off the design, but without that understanding, they really have nowhere to go. I think that's been most evident with Apple, but it happens anywhere you find good design. (In the sense that design is how something works and not just aesthetics.)
