Identity + Experience Design

Is Less Still More?

Complexity abounds. It's in our buildings, our bodies, and the phones in our pockets. Your house, your body, your gadgets, are each a sum of their parts. As great architects, Mother Nature, and Apple repeatedly show us, the smarter the design, the more "tasks" each part takes on. Like The Guggenheim. Its spiral ramp for passage is also the space for viewing the artwork, not to mention art itself. In that same spirit, the parts composing a smartly designed website should multitask so that dozens, not hundreds of parts compose the whole. A site's buttons, for example, might be functional and contribute to the website's aesthetic, brand, and information design. Simplify the complex, that's nature's way. In our age of information overload, less is more, more than ever.
