Do you agree that sometimes aesthetics is not a design criterion when selecting fabrics?
I do think that aesthetics is important to the design according to your potential client because we "Do" judge a book by it's cover. The aesthetics is the "first impression" you give to your clients. So would you feel O.K about having important treatments performed in a shady run down hospital, even if it has some of the best doctors in the world, I wouldn't...I think design can effect people on a subconscious level. Given that I would say.





1.School


2.Bank


3.Hospital

4.Software company


5.Library
