Intrigued by the title, as I begin each Art Fundamentals class talking about how the littlest things that we use are designed with both their use and the user in mind.
I love Antonelli's definition of designers as "mavericks;" I think students would really love that.
This TED Talk seemed to be Antonelli's review and explanation of were Design ideas were at in 2007, when the talk was given. Despite the TT being six+ years old, I suspect there are overlaps with where innovative design is at today. There is a growing emphasis on the environmental impact of design and of the objects we use in our everyday lives. There is also a focus on creating products that will make the things that we need to function be clever and efficient.
