Here he is: Spot. He's not furry, nor is he complicated in any way. Co-designed by a six year old, his cute potential was enormous from the get-go.
In design, we let our creativity take us down a complex path of mixing and layering. We put in the pillows, the art, and a hint of this and that: the inspirations all transpiring into one lovely decorated and designed space. Sometimes, we go back to a clean slate, relying on simple lines to bring our art together.
Spot exemplifies the latter. Not all good design has to be an intricate weave of complex fibres. Sometimes, simple is just right and mixes the right tones of classic and contemporary. Sometimes, we want to embrace simple, to escape from our lives, cluttered with so many to do lists and all this stuff that surrounds us. Sometimes, simple is all we really want.
