The Good Life

will our blind acceptance of design as a
metaphor for the good life simply suffice to alleviate the pain in our everyday
world?
oh who cares?

so long as Design Within Reach and the rest of the corporate usurpers of design ideology keep pushing the same plasticized crap into the hands of every wanna be interior decorator on the planet, then there will never be a shortage of Noguchi tables, Philippe Starck plastic chairs, and over-spec'd Artichoke Lamps in every restaurant, hotel, and nightclub being built.
