If you don't have an emotionally engaging design for a device, no one will care about it.

I am excited to partner with Aeropostale for my very own collection. It was a great experience to be able to work with them. Not only did I get to design an entire fashion line, but I got to do it at a great price point with quality clothes, both of which are very important to me.

I've always wanted to design a home collection line because growing up, I was obsessed with reorganizing my room.

I'm not a size 0, and I'm nowhere close to it. But, I don't want anyone to know what I am so I like to design clothes so you don't know what's going on under there.

We have no general conceptual thrust for the band, other than trying to make music that keeps our interest. When things are novel, they are probably things we have discovered by accident or investigation rather than by design.

I was eager to see what Swedish design had to offer and get a sense of its fashion culture, and Altewai Saome was the perfect introduction.

Design is the Zeppo Marx of management disciplines - the one that everyone seems to forget.

Pure art is a noble pursuit. Applied art is a business. That's one reason design firms have been so eager of late to add consulting and manufacturing to their core aesthetic competencies.

When designing your product, go beyond consumers' current knowledge base. Design, test, and dig deeper than almost any client would pay you to do.

Phones are a big deal, but tablets are an even bigger deal. So we're doing a lot of design work and experimentation around the tablet experience.

This is what I like about being a designer: You can't really get it until you see it.

If I have a style, I am not aware of it.

In designing hardware to be used every day, it was important to keep both the human aspects and the machine in mind. What looks good also often feels good.

Aficionados of Slow design and Slow fashion use ethical and green materials to make objects - furniture, clothes, jewellery - that lift the spirit and last a lifetime rather than one catwalk season.

The design of 'Love Actually,' the typeface, the basic line of that poster and that DVD cover has been ripped off so many times.

Beautiful Evidence is about the theory and practice of analytical design.

I do believe that there are some universal cognitive tasks that are deep and profound - indeed, so deep and profound that it is worthwhile to understand them in order to design our displays in accord with those tasks.

There's a simple arithmetical logic at work. Build more unaffordable and not always architecturally sympathetic apartments, watch the rents rise, the tarts leave, the small shops, production offices and design studios close down, and hey presto, we have another fashionable London suburb indistinguishable from the rest.

With the Larry Bertlemann portrait, I started with a photograph that I could use for it. I built the drawing's identity to serve as a graphic identity. After a number of sketches, I went into my own abstract vernacular of drawn lines and shapes to create the composition for the poster design.

For much of its existence, design was all about convenience. We wanted to hide technology so that users are not distracted into thinking about the tools they use.

Above all, John Galliano menswear is all about good design. And men have been short-changed by good design for too long.

We must carefully consider card security solutions, such as adding photographs or machine-readable electronic strips, so to prevent further breaches of individual privacy that could result from changes to the design of Social Security Cards.

I might want to open a hotel and design all the rooms. Or maybe a museum that lets me curate all the events.

There is artistic beauty to the way biology functions, nature functions, and science functions. I am trying to bring that kind of understanding in the design space.

The demise of Google Reader, if logical, is a reminder of how far we've come from the cuddly old 'I'm Feeling Lucky' Google days, in which there was a foreseeably-astonishing delight in the way Google's evolving design tricks anticipated what users would like.

Bottom line: government shouldn't be a bottleneck for entrepreneurs looking to design a better mousetrap.

I feel like design school might ruin people, particularly if you're a menswear designer, as there's not much focus on business.

If I were a rock star, I'd design my own clothes. I'd do it because that's the mark of a true rock star.

I've been called the journeyman. It's really more by default than it is by design.

The fact I've been in every lineup of Yes has been more by default than design.

We experience every space in five senses, so it's strange that architects design just for the eyes.

What I've learned from different designers is that it's key to be true to who you are and your vision. That's always been my line of thinking. Working through the whole design process, I don't want to create something I wouldn't be proud to wear.

I mean, I think about it, but I don't design my record to get a certain public response.

The details are the very source of expression in architecture. But we are caught in a vice between art and the bottom line.

After 1980, you never heard reference to space again. Surface, the most convincing evidence of the descent into materialism, became the focus of design. Space disappeared.

No wonder the film industry started in the desert in California where, like all desert dwellers, they dream their buildings, rather than design them.

Design, if it is to be ecologically responsible and socially responsive, must be revolutionary and radical.

Science can improve lives in ways that are elegant in design and moving in practice.

I think fan fiction is the way most writers start, and the same goes for music and design.

As for design, I gravitate to traditional styles but mix it with an element of surprise. Whether it's a big sash bow in the back or an unexpected fabric, it all needs to work together.

I put myself into another world and another identity, and I design not for how my life is but for how my imaginary life is.
