Response to Reading #1

The book was a very interesting read. I thought that because it captures design in a very appealing way to the reader. If someone who has never really thought how important design is was to read this, he or she would certainly be enlightened when the author talks about the many occurrences of design in everyday life. He basically says that almost nothing in our environment is completely natural, and he's right: everything really needs to be designed by someone. I really liked the part where he states that if we design objects around us in ways never seen before then we can give meaning to our lives.
