Socialist designers

Socialist designer is an article written by Fabrizio gilardino the whole article talks about socialist designers manifesto and the certain rules they follow. Most of the rules said is true like the photoshop filters which is overdone nowadays. It's interesting how he's working on it almost alone and although not payed that much still is enthusiastic.
Pople used to think that architecture and planning is what built the society on the contrary what has built is design. A lot of people lack the fact that design is most important and it is everything you see around you. It starts from the menu that you ordered your lunch from to that commercial that drove you to a shop. But when it comes to the designers mistake or lack is the uniqueness of style due to the internet and the access that every designer has to the same source of information and links. Not only that but know it is stock imagery you wouldn't find a lot of companies that deliver locally but everything is branded in one style and just distributed. A long time ago everyone had to build the style he will work with but now people are computer generated. In the article he talks about how a professionalism is a person that thinks he knows everything and a crafts person is an artistic person willing to learn till the last day in his career, its true most professional people think they are already in the top of the mountain and that they don't need any help.
