Nathan Beck, digital product designer based in Amsterdam | The death of design My wife often jokes that I draw boxes for a living. She’s not entirely wrong. For the uninitiated, it humorously sums up a good portion of how I appear to have been spending my 9-5s for a long time. I would like to point out that I also draw lines between the boxes, and occasionally break up all those boxes with circles (which the twisted amongst you could say are just boxes with infinite border radii). And most importantly, I move all those boxes about into an endless array of configurations to find the best fit—that being the feng shui aspect of design. https://nathanbeck.eu/essays/death-of-design/
