Top Design Inspiration Quotes

Design Inspiration Quotes By Owen Jones Classics

The Egyptians are inferior only to themselves. In all other styles we can trace a rapid ascent from infancy, founded on some bygone style, to a culminating point of perfection, when the foreign influence was modified or discarded, to a period of slow, lingering decline, feeding on it's own elements. In the Egyptian we have no traces of infancy or of any foreign influence; and we must, therefore believe that they went to inspiration directly from nature. — Owen Jones Classics

Design Inspiration Quotes By Marc Forster

When talking with a set designer the dialogue is more centered on locations, interior design, what I like and what doesn't work. There is a certain taste I'm drawn to and feel inspired by, and finding that inspiration is what keeps the conversation moving forward. — Marc Forster

Design Inspiration Quotes By Bill Gates

Inspiration starts somewhere. — Bill Gates

Design Inspiration Quotes By Toni Sorenson

Do you realize that you have the power to design a life that's meaningful and even remarkable? You and God are in a family partnership. He has not only blessed you with mortal breath, but with a purpose-filled life. He's given you power and will to control that life. This is a gift that He will never take from you. But when you humble yourself and give your will back to him, your life will be nothing short of miraculous. — Toni Sorenson

Design Inspiration Quotes By Jeanne Gang

Good ideas come from everywhere. It's more important to recognize a good idea than to author it. — Jeanne Gang

Design Inspiration Quotes By Pope Francis

The Church encourages those in power to be truly at the service of the common good of their peoples. She urges financial leaders to take account of ethics and solidarity.

In this way, a new political and economic mindset would arise that would help to transform the absolute dichotomy between the economic and social spheres into a healthy symbiosis. — Pope Francis

Design Inspiration Quotes By Mies Van De Rohe

I don't want to be interesting. I want to be good. — Mies Van De Rohe

Design Inspiration Quotes By Jim Rohn

If we are fortunate, we one day find that person who impacts our world in such a way that our life is never the same again. By chance, or by design, we met that someone who offers the support, encouragement, and inspiration to become more than we ever thought possible. — Jim Rohn

Design Inspiration Quotes By James Grissom

My places were emotional, primarily. I wrote of locales in which I had lived, or in which I imagined I could live, but the topography was primal and sexual and terminal. It bore no distinct architecture or design or dialect. It was merely human and in peril, which is to say universal. But on Royal and Coliseum and Vista--streets I cannot relinquish--I found my places and I dreamed a narrative. Can I go there and find it again?"--Tennessee Williams — James Grissom

Design Inspiration Quotes By Chris Arnold

Design Inspiration Quotes By Maggie Macnab

Design is a fundamental human activity, relevant and useful to everyone. Anything humans create - be it product, communication or system - is a result of the process of making inspiration real. I believe in doing what works as circumstances change: quirky or unusual solutions are often good ones. Nature bends and so should we as appropriate. Nature is always right outside our door as a reference and touch point. We should use it far more than we do. — Maggie Macnab

Design Inspiration Quotes By Laura Busche

Design Inspiration Quotes By Andy Clark

Design Inspiration Quotes By C.A.R. Hoare

I conclude that there are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies.
The first method is far more difficult. It demands the same skill, devotion, insight, and even inspiration as the discovery of the simple physical laws which underlie the complex phenomena of nature. It also requires a willingness to accept objectives which are limited by physical, logical, and technological constraints, and to accept a compromise when conflicting objectives cannot be met. No committee will ever do this until it is too late. — C.A.R. Hoare

Design Inspiration Quotes By Laz Alonso

I love HGTV. I love working on my house and have really been bit by the 'luxury remodeling' bug. 'Million Dollar Rooms,' 'Million Dollar Listing' ... any show that can give me design inspiration, I soak it in and try my hand at it. Home Depot is my second home! — Laz Alonso

Design Inspiration Quotes By Jessica Walsh

Do work you love and are passionate about, look outside of the world of graphic design for inspiration. — Jessica Walsh

Design Inspiration Quotes By Carl Magnusson

Good design is not about form following function. It is function with cultural content. By adding "cultural content" to the concept of "form follows function," objects cease to be finite or predictable. Maybe the right way to interpret the dictum is to first acknowledge that the function needs to be clearly understood before the form is considered. — Carl Magnusson

Design Inspiration Quotes By Hillman Curtis

It does wonders for my own psyche to turn envy into inspiration. No matter how successful we become, we're never above that. — Hillman Curtis

Design Inspiration Quotes By Laura Busche

I faced people from all walks of business who fully disregarded design (though they were completely influenced by it). I also met fine artists who drowned in their own work and the dense creative universe in their minds.

Then I met designers. And instantly fell in love. Let me tell you why.

Designers are familiar with critiques. They not only tolerate them but actively look out for them. They honestly believe in iterations and learn to edit down their work. They embrace simplicity and create beauty based on requirements other than their own. Design education teaches you to run away from assumptions and to have the stomach to scrap your work often.

I'm bringing this up because it's time to bridge the gap between design and business. — Laura Busche
