There Are Three Kinds of Design At Play. We Need To Be Specific. Overview individual

DESIGN

“ classical design” there’s a right way to make what

is perfect, crafted, and complete

BUSINESS

“ design thinking” because execution has outpaced

innovation, and experience matters

TECHNOLOGY

“ computational design” designing for billions of people

and in realtime, is at scale and TBD

scale Driver/ the Industrial Revolution, and prior to that at least a few millennia of ferment.

Driver/ the need to innovate in relation to individual customer needs requires empathy.

Driver/ the impact of Moore’s Law, mobile computing, and the latest tech paradigms.

The two growing categories of “designers” are those coming from Business and Technology. The three categories above are

co-dependent — you must embrace at least two of these categories in order to win in this century. Source: @kpcb #DesignInTech @johnmaeda Text http://kpcb.com/design
