Response to Design Reading

Good design comes in many forms. There are many new things that come out every day, but only a chosen few are considered to be well designed. All the objects that I own vary from the cheaper side to the more expensive side. Things that need to last longer, I am willing to pay more for them. These things include my car, my PlayStation, and my couch to name a few. There are so many decisions that are made when making a big purchase like that. First, have to be drawn in by the way it looks. This it’s the most practical way of making big decisions, but when something is appealing we are more likely to buy it. The reason for that it that good looking design make us feel good. The third article actually states that design is a method of problem-solving. Another thing that contributes to making big purchases is the usability aspect of it. If something will make my life easier, and lasts the test of time, then I will be really excited to buy something. Design is in every part of our lives.
