Running on Empty

Last weeks talk at the Lighthouse by Kenya Hara, author of Designing Design, exhibition curator, graphic designer and creative director of Muji, proposed some interesting ideas about ’emptiness’.

A defining philosophy of ’emptiness’ (as opposed to simplicity or minimalism) in both product and advertising, was something that could have been expanded upon in much greater detail, (or possibly not, if that would defeat the point), but certainly provides an interesting new starting point when thinking about the things we make and the communication we initiate.

More on this in Designing Design (see above).
