The designer is not always right. The researcher is not always wrong. Profit is not always the motive; market research, whatever its outcome, should never be used as a good excuse for bad design – in the same sense that good design should never be used to promote a bad product. —Paul Rand
Where you innovate, how you innovate, and what you innovate are design problems. —Tim Brown
