Design interacts constantly in our lives, it both solves problems and creates desires.
Design is everywhere around us and affect our lives in most evident ways.
foreword.
Design is a very important process that has a very strong effect on society. It can change the way of we think and affect our well being.
Design is like a bridge between a company and a comsumer which can build a trusworthy and reliable friendship
(important in a time when advertising has turned into a questionable effort to build brand recognition).
Even if design is often about bringing function to our everyday life, it's also about creating desire.
Design may, from a company perspective, be defined as " to visualise a strategy" Today most companies understand that the
products of their competitors have the same technology, price, performance and functions. To succeed, you have to deliver emotional
as well as rational (and tangible) values that differentiates you from your competitors.
The need for design that seduces us by appealing to all of our senses is constantly increasing and we need to
create products, services and systems that encourage sharing. Materials have hidden messages. These create a powerful link to
our emotional psyches and shape of our connection to daily life.
In the future a lot of new technology will be invented. Then, I think "Fun and function"
will be the keywords of Design in the future. Designing with the new technology for appealing human's emotion will be the new mainstream in the design industry.
In other word "design + technology = emotion".
My windup_________________________________________________________________
According to me, good design is a clever solution to a problem. To reach there you must be open-minded and open hearted.
Unite the past, present and future and be inspired from the world around you. Design is about humans. Always.
That's why it has to be culturally connected. We are not machines. You have to see design through the lens of humanity.

First Printed Blog.
As Jiklet (www.jiklet.com), to present the concept of
blog as simple and practical, we decided to make a new medium and
we called it BLOG NOT. So for the first time, blog along with World Wide
Web is built as a print medium to share more information and to inspire.
Block notes, (regarding their sizes and utilization facilities)
are products that we don't feel disturbed to carry with us all day long.
"How would it be if we come up with a new idea for this user habit and
halve it and use one part to read the blog and the rest as a note space?"
