Good design is as little design as possible

Taking a cue from my design hero Dieter Rams, I do my best to do more with less. A good design does not need to include every feature or bell and whistle, it only needs enough features.

In the 1970’s and 80’s Rams formulated a 10 principles of good design. It's amazing how they are actual today as they were back half a centaury ago.

If you're interested, here a short interview with Rams.  If you have more time, read the Less and More book, the design ethos of Dieter Rams.
