The age of design

Cirrus, The Jet

This is Cirrus, The Jet. Look at it. What do you see? I see a live thing… A fish, a dolphin, or a shark possibly. The last thing I think of looking at it is the technology behind it — the engine, the wires inside, etc. It’s hidden deep in the beauty and liveliness of design. Hmm… Did you think of Apple too? Just compare it to Eclipse Concept Jet:

Yes, I know that ECJ is already flying while The Jet is only a wooden model. I see there aren’t even seat belts on it yet. But believe me, The Jet will be a live thing. Only its name reminds me of what it really is. Apple, Cirrus… They make me thinking, whether I will be living in my age, in the age of Design? I hope.
