What is Design?
Design is everything. From the smallest insect, to the tallest skyscrapers, design is a huge part of this world. Everything in nature was designed by millions of years’ worth of evolution and progress. Everything man-made was created by theoretically the most evolved creatures in nature: humans.
At the bottom of it all, design is an inherent human ability to create, alter, and give birth to the world around him. Every morning, we all wake up and design what kind of person we are going to present to other people. It is part of performativity that we all take part in and think about every single day. Try going to the gym and you will find people working hard to design themselves a better body.
Design has thrived as a means of communication in the modern world. Every single day we are overwhelmed with advertisements designed specifically to pique our interest. There are television shows based on the very concept of design. This aspect of design has become the most prevalent, but in no way does it describe the whole thing
With design, mere humans can become gods. Even something as simple as moving a rock is already influencing the design of the world. It is difficult to quantify a grand concept such as design. Which is why there is only one way to really describe it:
Design is everything.
