The following quote is my favorite regarding how beauty and design are
integrated with and emerge from form and function.
I've long been aware of a basic and fundamental differentiation
(speaking in broad generalizations, but still there) between the
American approach to design (more *advertising* and *styling* oriented)
and the European approach to design (wholism, integrated experience,
generalist design approachs, elegance from integration of function with
beauty and aesthetics, etc.).
