All men are designers. All that we do, almost all the time, is design, for design is basic to all human activity. The planning and patterning of
any act towards a desired, foreseeable end constitutes the design process. Any attempt to separate design, to make it a thing-by-itself, works
counter to the inherent value, of design as the primary underlying matrix of life. Design is composing an epic poem, executing a mural,
painting a masterpiece, writing a concerto. But design is also cleaning and reorganizing a desk drawer, pulling an impacted tooth, baking an
apple pie, choosing sides for a back-lot baseball game, and educating a child. Design is the conscious effort to impose meaningful order.
