Carl Magnusson quotes
-
“Good design is not about form following function. It is function with cultural content. By adding "cultural content" to the concept of "form follows function," objects cease to be finite or predictable. Maybe the right way to interpret the dictum is to first acknowledge that the function needs to be clearly understood before the form is considered.”
-- Carl Magnusson -
“Everything that I do has a certain mechanical logic to it, and follows my definition of design--which is function with cultural content.”
-- Carl Magnusson
