In this essay, the idea of different materials and their efficiency is brought up. While something may be strong and sturdy, it may still rust. On the other hand, if it’s made out of wood, it won’t rust, but it may not be quite as sturdy as a metal would be. Another aspect to consider is the size that the material is available in. If the material is too small, it would be difficult to cut precisely. If it is too big, the material would be difficult to maneuver. Next is discusses the idea of flat surfaces. Any flat surface can be attached to another flat surface, but if the top is curved, and the bottom is flat, combining the two now becomes difficult.
The article then switches course and talks about how we view beauty in art and how art is a way to view someone’s personal life, views, and idea of happiness. Everyone defines happiness differently and not one definition is true.The purpose of design is to promote human happiness, but it can not
simply produce happiness, but merely expand upon one’s already existing feelings and opinions.
