Assignment

Read chapter 8: 'Manifesto' in 'Artful Design'.

Briefly answer the following.

  1. Which of the principles in this chapter most resonates with you and why?
  2. This chapter is about design that embodies our values as well as just meeting some function need. In your own words, why does Wang include aesthetics in this discussion?
  3. As you think about this chapter, reflect on your project. Try to articulate the underlying values that you are going to try to design into your project. These may have been there from the start, or they may be new thoughts brought about by the reading. If the reflection has caused you to rethink some aspect of your projects, describe the change.
