Paola Antonelli's view on design is very interesting. I like how she looked at design as not just fabrics, for example, but as learning how to use things in different ways. One thing I found interesting was one of the designs that had the keyboard and in the middle of a keyboard was a plate for food. What I also found interesting was when Paola was talking about how one designer was talking about how work and leisure should coexist. I liked how most of the designs involved putting two things together and seeing how the two objects could work together. Some designs had people use objects and common furniture as tools, and required people to interact with their furniture, which was pretty interesting.

The article that was about how bad designs and their effects on people had some interesting points. For example, the street sign that was talked about with the first letter being way too big next to the other letters, was an interesting point to make. The big letter causes people's attention to gravitate to the big letter, and people may choose not to read the sign. Also, the article made a point saying that not only words are distracting, but the colors are too and it could be a very good or very bad thing. The article also mentions that certain companies have a bad habit of choosing poor graphic designers to redesign their logos and somehow make them look worse then before. Logos have a lot of appeal, and these companies need to really make sure they do the best to their ability to find a great graphic designer to improve and reinvent these logos.

The artist in the article talks about what inspires him, what he looks for in art, and how he gets started on art pieces. I liked how he also pointed out in the end of the interview that it is good to be inspired but it is very important to branch off and create original pieces of art. i liked how the artist was partially self taught and learned to develop and hone his skills in school. I also liked how the artist talks about who his favorite artists were, and that he was inspired by work from the 50's and 60's.
