Pragmatic Design

“the notion that you can only see the effects of something when you put that something into the real world. The idea that theory follows practice, instead of the other way around.”

— Davey van der Woert

I struggle with theory. As I’ve already said, if I cannot see something, I probably won’t understand it. I don’t understand the apparent need for design to be so theoretical and impractical. I want the things I design to be designed with purpose, to be something that can actually be used and serve a purpose.
