In the article, Kidd explained several basic design tools like Left to Right, Top to Bottom, Big and Small, and others, which are quite important to students who are interested in design. Although these skills only deal with Form, which is a small part of design, a successful designer should become skilled in using them. At the end of the article, the writer said a good work must contain something special, something that represents the designer himself or herself. I really agree with it even I've never learnt design before. I believe all the excellent designs are imbued with meaning and maybe even with soul and spirit. A design without soul can't touched other people.
Actually, I found the article was a little difficult to understand especially in the prelude part. I can find the connection between the prelude and interlude. I am wondering why Kidd describe those enermy things in prelude? Is it because they treat the process of learning design as enermy?
