Objectified Reflection

From watching this movie, I have an entirely different view on design now. I never really thought about how surrounds my everyday life. Every object that that you used in your daily life such as; a toothbrush, a cell phone, a mouse to a computer, was design thoroughly by someone. It makes me think about the time and effort that was put into design an object. However with being a designer, there is a detailed process with designing something. First, a designer’s main goal in designing a product is making the useful and a necessity in the world. It’s their job to make things in our everyday much easier. Then, turning an idea into something visual that connects with the consumers. I feel that if a designer can make customers evoke emotions and experienced the object then that designer has done their job.  When I think about my beautiful gold heart shaped necklace that my grandma gave to me, the object has a sentimental value to me but it is also beautifully crafted. Now, that I see the time and effort that a designer goes through from making a product from scratch, I have a great respect for all designers. Finally, from watching this film, I know that designers are essential in this world because without them there wouldn’t be any advancement in technology and the world wouldn’t improve. So, I’m happy that we have dedicated designers that are willing to show their creative to help bring our world into a brighter future.
