Designs on Policy - Allison Arieff Blog - NYTimes.com
“Design touches all sectors of our daily life, and increasing awareness of that reality can result in tremendous benefit for all. Is design about aesthetics? Of course it is, but that’s just one of its many facets. Design can save time, money and one’s sanity. It can simplify use, enhance enjoyment, and keep us safe and well. I believe the National Design Policy can help to tangibly illustrate design’s value and help to keep it from being reduced to an afterthought…”
I very much agree! This is a great initiative and a way to try to get at the root of many problems. Of course, many things need much more immediately tangible fixes, but, long term, I definitely think this is very important to persue.

Ok, I really want one of these! I even tried to take up knitting so I could make my own! But it turns out I sort of suck at knitting. It takes a lot more patience than I have and it’s waaaay too tedious for me. I thought it might be a nice way to sort of relax, you know, with this repetitive, constant action and what not. But I kept making mistakes and missing stitches and ending up with a bunch of holes, which in the end just made me really annoyed and fed up and made me start over…really not relaxing.
So, now I’m back to just wishing I had one of these…
