The Need for Design

I was thinking today what the world would be like without design. All of the fonts would be the same, signs and ads would be bland and to-the-point. The world would be black and white. Anyway, it was something I was thinking about as I was driving to class, looking at the different signs and bumperstickers on the backs of cars. Design creates the world around us in a way. A visual means of communication, which is so vital and necessary to people. Just some thoughts.
