Review:

This is one of those documentaries that J has insisted we watch. And I'm glad. Living with a designer, I have slowly started to see elements of design, especially of the bad variety. The documentary lays out many philosophies of design and how they impact our daily lives. Very interesting. I love the idea that design evokes emotion and becomes a part of your family. Great way to explain it.
