These are some of my all-time favorite quotes about design. What are yours? Email them to me and I will publish them here.
Design is art that makes itself useful. 1984 poster for Die Neue Sammlung, Design Museum, Munich
Marketing without design is lifeless, and design without marketing is mute. Von R. Glitschka
Design to express, not to impress. John Tanedo
Design is the silent ambassador of your brand. Paul Rand
Everything is designed. Few things are designed well. Brian Reed
Graphic design has been likened to a wine glass. When we drink wine we barely notice the glass it’s served in. It wouldn’t be true to say that we don’t care what glass we drink out of –- we wouldn’t choose to drink a rare vintage out of a Tupperware mug, for example –- but it’s the wine that matters, not the vessel it comes in. Adrian Shaughnessy
Good design is obvious. Great design is transparent. Joe Sparano
If it doesn’t sell, it isn’t creative. David Ogilvy
Design should never say, “Look at me.” It should always say, “Look at this.” David Craib
People ignore design that ignores people. Frank Chemero
