kit comment

I think that the "kit" used for designing is a simple and effective tool. It really puts the customer, consume, person, community into play. Often designers will create something that looks good, but has no or little practical value to those it was designed for. By going to the source and obtaining all the information you can, you can start to get a sense for what is really needed. making sure that you utilize every means you have for a quality design that will actually do some good to those who need it. Myself, i like simple designs without much fluff. Simple and straight to the point. Unfortunately the program at PSU seems to frown on designs of that nature. Not always, but most of the time.
