“The proliferation of mass customization of consumer products… will have a powerful and empowering effect on how ordinary people see design” (Pink, 94).
I think that this is really important in today’s world because of our high abundance and technological advances. This is exactly why design is so important today. It gives us a chance to be different than the rest of society, which has gotten a lot bigger and a lot more crowded by people, things, and ideas. I can make my own shoe, and I feel like I can stand out in a world of so much. The only reason why I can make my own shoe is because of how the Internet has become a shopping mall itself. It is affecting how ordinary people view design because they want to be a part of it. We must separate ourselves in order to make a difference in this world of manipulation.
