DYB124- Design Manifesto

What should design be like in the future?
Design has always been a colourful universe, suitable for creative people who are willing to try different ideas. Whether it is now or in the future, the purpose of design is to meet human needs and make contributions to society. Design affects everything in the world, as much as it concerns our lives and our country, and at the same time, it is so small as only to affect the creatures in nature. Therefore, the design is not only an art but also a science. Design is compelling, very interesting and intricate. As a designer, whether in the present or the future, we must use this power to do things that can help society. This is also our obligation as a designer.
In an environment with many influence factors and rapid development of science and technology, a complete set of principles needs to be customized for future design to lead us to the right path.

Design needs more empathy
The existence of empathy in the design is significant. Designers in the design process to really, deeply feel the needs of users and potential customers. When making a design plan, from the user's heart, not only to complete the design but also to understand their real inner thoughts. Therefore, designers only know how to express their feelings, to have a deep understanding of the user's emotions. For empathy, feedback on the user experience is critical. Keeping the empathy to design, make the product to the user experience and self-action should be the contemporary designer should maintain the design attitude.

Human-centred design
In the design process, human-centred design is necessary. Designers need to focus on the intrinsic relationship between the product and consumers. In design activities, let people directly participate in the first time to give advice and experience. In the design process must pay attention to as little as possible the use of personal information, privacy impact. Meanwhile, all people should be treated equally and without discrimination with coloured glasses. Through the people-oriented design concept, from the objective needs of people, from human nature, practice and get feedback to improve continuously. Strive to design moving works that enrich everyone's experience.

Emerging Technology
Nowadays, as the rapid development of emerging technology becomes more and more mature, design has been combined with many emerging technologies. Emerging technologies such as virtual reality, augmented reality, 3d printing, robotics, blockchain will combine with sketches, paintings, brainstorming, etc. in traditional design to make designs more diverse. The impetus of emerging technology promotes more unique ideas and explorations of design, broadens the understanding of the original design methods, and develops a broader range of thinking. Advances in technology and design have become complementary, enabling designers to design more convenient and innovative design solutions to sublimation.

In the future, the design will become more complex and involve a broader range of areas. Design needs to meet not only functional needs but also emotional needs. Design will focus more on sustainability and regeneration, and design tools will change. Therefore, designers need not only to focus on the field of expertise but also to be proficient in the basics of various fields to make the design more perfect and appropriate. The quality of a comprehensive design will become critical. The design of the future will grow more un boundless, and designers must know - what changes will our design bring to society? What can be done to maximize the benefits for all? So we must love innovation and explore the possibilities of the future. The design will shine and play its real role.
