Thoughts on design, development, AI infrastructure, and building products.
Kéré built his first school for his village while still a student. His buildings are climate systems, community projects, and architecture — all at once.
Design & CulturePaula Scher sketched the Citibank logo in seconds on a napkin. It took her 34 years to learn how to draw it that fast. Speed is mastery, not carelessness.
Design & CultureDaniel Arsham casts everyday objects in volcanic ash and crystal, then presents them as artifacts from the future. His method: future archaeology.
Design & CultureKashiwa Sato redesigned Uniqlo, 7-Eleven Japan, and 1,700 products by stripping brands to a single icon. His method: zero in on the essence, then compress.
Design & CultureFlorence Knoll invented the modern office by treating interiors as architecture, not decoration. Her Planning Unit changed how corporations think about space.
Design & CultureTinker Hatfield saw the Centre Pompidou and decided sneakers should show their guts too. His visible Air window changed footwear. His Jordan III saved Nike.
Design & CultureHiroshi Fujiwara introduced hip-hop to Japan, co-created Harajuku streetwear, and built Fragment Design on one principle: the selection is the creation.
Design & CultureFrank Lloyd Wright destroyed the box and built Fallingwater over a waterfall. His principle: a building should grow from its site like a plant.
Design & CultureRick Rubin co-founded Def Jam, stripped songs to their essence, and wrote The Creative Act. His method: subtraction, attention, and taste as production.
Design & CultureCharles Harrison designed the plastic trash can, the View-Master, and 750 products at Sears. His audience was the family on a quiet street.
Design & CultureCharles and Ray Eames turned a WWII leg splint into a furniture empire. Their method: constraints are gifts, details are the design, play is serious.
Design & CultureJony Ive didn't just design how Apple products looked -- he designed how they were made. The unibody process, the diamond-cut chamfer, the inside of the case.
