Design Rules

This Fast Company article from 1999 is still a really interesting read: "[We] asked 15 top designers—creators of buildings, furniture, products, Web sites, costumes, and labels—to deconstruct something that exemplifies great design to them. More important, we asked them to tell us what we can learn about the art of design.” A nice variety of designers and responses—everything from the speed bump to a surprising object by the inevitable Eameses.
