Trying to determine whether or not a particular design is good, many turn to the legendary German designer Dieter Rams and his ‘10 commandments.‘According to him, good design is innovative, makes a product useful, is aesthetic, makes a product understandable, is unobtrusive, is honest, is long-lasting, is thorough down to the last detail, is environmentally friendly, and involves as little design as possible.Even though Rams came up with his commandments a long time ago and technology has advanced light years since then, many think his principles still apply today.

Gwilt himself thinks a good design must first and foremost form an innate connection between the user and the product.“Someone needs to look at the product, and instantly understand what it is and how it can benefit them,” he said. “The goal is to design a product that is understandable and desirable. It should integrate neatly with the existing lifestyle of the customer, and improve it for the better.”
