Is design dead, or just passé? Or perhaps how we define it just needs a "brand refresh"? Also, is it still appropriate to conflate, as you do with Starck, the design with the designer? Collective design seems to be surfacing, but is there a collective form that goes along with it? All the Maker stuff popped up in the Cooper Hewitt show last year and also is tucked here and there in Design and the Elastic Mind, both shows looks, collectively, like a week on Boing Boing.
