Any true practice of design with a human focus has to be built on a foundation of traditional design

“Any true practice of design with a human focus has to be built on a foundation of traditional design that focuses on the the craft & design of perceptual mediums using methods & practices of design from the root of art over science.” – David Malouf

This quote is from David’s article “Interaction Design’s Early Formal Education & Beyond”

1. Design is a reflective practice between the designer and her design materials
2. Design is not rocket science. It’s social science.
3. Good design isn’t decoration. Good design is problem solving.
4. We want to focus on achieving our goals, not deciphering technology
5. Good designers can create normalcy out of chaos
