Design Philosophy

Designing With a Purpose | design is artistic, not art

As a creative person, I strongly believe in making art for the sake of making art. My personal goal in making art is to create something to be admired. Create something that will provoke thought and spark curiosity. Design is more than just creating something aesthetically pleasing, it is creating something that purposefully tackles a problem. I view art as the instigator of questions, and I believe that design holds the answers.

If I reach the end of a project and ask myself:

What is the purpose of what I created?

The answer should not be left to interpretation, like many great art pieces. Anyone should be able to look at my final product and know that I designed a solution with a purpose.

All art is quite useless

And effective design is quite useful
