The public is more familiar with bad design than good design.
It is, in effect, conditioned to prefer bad design, because that is what it lives with.
The new becomes threatening, the old reassuring.

We've had these sleek watering cans from Born In Sweden instore for several months now, but I finally brought a red one home for my use. Figured if I had something so fantastic to remind me to water my small plants, they might actually have a chance of survival! So far, so good...
Artisan Lauren Coleman was in A+R recently installing several of her exquisitely rendered terrariums. Made under the Litill name, each glass container is mouthblown according to Lauren's design. She then carefully constructs an ephemeral mini-world inside with handpainted elements, sparkling minerals and crystals and uncommon succulents. We have 8 instore right now. Visit.
