It seems that graceful form leads to efficient balanced function. Applied to design, form of athletes or dancers, leaves on a tree, or architecture, it seems to be true. <br /> Maybe as technology advances the design, form, and function possibilities of an object, ir becomes harder to see the inherent beauty or symmetry vs historical or handmade objects. Do machines destroy this symbiotic element to design or just change it? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.JennyFialkoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06429937567764996122noreply@blogger.com
