Contemporary Design has found its philosophy !

by Laurent de Sutter

Design is the art of bringing enchantment to everyday life through form. But there is nothing magical about that enchantment, nor even artistic : it is the concrete result of a certain number of technical procedures specific to each designer’s task. Designers make projects. And because they make projects, the effect they seek to achieve is not limited to the conception of objects.
