Yves Behar discusses the concept of designing more than just for the sake of design. He states that to produce a good design, the product should continue to enthuse the user long after it has been in possession. This has made me think more about the importance to have our design connect to the user at a much deeper level. Best example being his 'one laptop per child' concept. Having such technology being shared with children all over the world aiding them in their education and at the same time allowing them to have individual experiences and a connection with their own laptop. Yves puts out the notion that a working design should bring more importance, more value even to the users themselves. Yves' way of convening this idea has made me realise this important point in the design process, making it an integral part of producing a good quality design.
