Design APPROACH: Elegantly effective
Architect Frank Lloyd Wright's principle that "form and function are one" can be applied beyond architecture to any design discipline. It suggests that the design of any object or system should be purpose-driven, and that form should emerge from function. It also highlights the importance of avoiding superfluous elements and prioritizing functionality, resulting in designs that are efficient, practical, and beautiful.
