thanks for the Dieter Rams link - excellent stuff. It's pretty damned nice to see that philosophy in action, not least as a Johnny Ive fan [yup. The influence is very obvious]
those rules are something I shall endeavour to follow - and indeed more or less did with that car park design. I wish more product designers would. It really is amazing how many things are made with an absurd quantity of unnecessary guff tagged on
It needs to be clarified that the final rule - which you emphasise - relates to knowing what to leave out, rather than underdesigning. I think this is something that's going to be a lot more prominent in years to come.
interestingly, the German judgement in Apple vs Samsung more or less states that copying someone else's design does *not* count as innovation. Using the very curious 'stifling' argument isn't going to work.
