"Design is to design a design to produce a design."

In class last week, a quote that was brought up in class from Heskett's book showed design as a verb and a noun, but if one breaks apart the sentence it's a step by step process to produce one design. "Design is to design a design to produce a design." Basically, design is used to produce a single design, which is used as something a person can use. Without design, we wouldn't get products that we use every day. In class, we also talked about production before and after the Industrial Revolution. Machinery, like the steam engine, was created, and that has evolved into bigger and quicker production today. All in all, the evolution of design was an insight to lecture and it's amazing how much has changed through process and technology with all of the new materials being created and how they are made.
