UX & DESIGNING FOR CONTEXT
Considering place and environment in design
Design is a funny word. Some people think design means how it looks. But of
course, if you dig deeper, it’s really how it works.
Steve Jobs, Businessman
All architecture is shelter, all great
architecture is the design of space that
contains, cuddles, exalts or stimulates the
persons in that space.Philip Johnson,
Architect

What is design? It’s where you stand with a foot in two
worlds - the world of technology and the world of people and human purposes
- and you try to bring the two together.
Mitchell Kapor, Businessman
Designs of purely arbitrary nature cannot be expected to last long.
