Dieter Rams Less and More Interview

How to introduce one of the most influential designers of the 20th century--one whose clear visual language has not only defined product design for decades, but also our fundamental understanding of design's potential and function? We're guessing our "Less and More" book and this video podcast interview is a good start.

"Design should not dominate people, should help people." What a line..

[@romanvssvmromania]

Definitely not talking about his simple but powerful design with this line. I could say his products both help and dominate the lives of their owners.

[@decontigiovanni]

In fact, it is actually really sad to see everyday users, it comes to my mind how TikTok is structured, bright colors and stuff, beeing dominated nowadays by those "products". Maybe our generation really wants to be dominated by objects. For real, what a line.

Rams is a world treasure. More designers should listen.

What was the song used at the end .?

[@Gyros9988]

Eine Koryphäe durch und durch Und so bescheiden

[@DavidHromov]

Which track is playing from 4:30?! I think it's very similar in style, techniques, vocals and accent to Mum and remixes of their tracks, but I can't find anything similar there. As a consolation bonus, I will attach it to all those who are looking for it: The Ballad Of The Broken Birdie Records (Ruxpin Remix II) - Mum And I will wait for the answer to the question!

As an American 25+ years in Germany, I can say with confidence that the overwhelming majority of Americans are not bothered by a strong accent. We Americans have great respect for the German people, especially for the truly exceptional people like Herr Rams. Substance always over form. Rams, a genius, and so genuine.
