Tom Sachs’ 10 Bullets

!?10 Bullets by Tom Sachs on YouTube

1. Work to Code, Creativity Is The Enemy

• Working to code means, when working at Tom Sachs’ studio, it’s important to remember that there is a system already in place. New ideas will be carefully built on top of those preexisting. Inventions should be conceived out of necessity and not to convenience of the individual.

Dieter Rams’ Ten Principles to Good Design

1. Good design is innovative - The possibilities for innovation are not, by any means, exhausted. Technological development is always offering new opportunities for innovative design. But innovative design always develops in tandem with innovative technology, and can never be an end in itself.

('It is a common custom,' he later wrote, 'to part children from their mothers . . . before the child has reached its twelfth month.') He was one of countless millions of slave children whose realistic prospects for a hopeful life were nil.
