According to these authors, the role that design plays in our society is that it guides us to creating solutions for any given problem. For instance, Bruno Munari mentions the difference in work routines between a designer and an industrial engineer, “I onced asked an engineer who had designed a motor-scooter why he had chosen a particular colour, and he said: because it was the cheapest.” He then goes on to say that the designer, “gives the right weight to each part of the project in hand, and he knows the ultimate form of the objects is psychologically vital when the potential buyer is making up his mind”. Munari is basically saying that the designer knows more about making the product better for the buyer, while an engineer will just worry about finishing the task. On that note, the difference between the field of design and other creative occupations is that designers want to make the connection between art and the public. 

Designers should concern themselves with unsolvable theoretical questions because as Helen Armstrong mentioned, it opens up new questions and expands ideas. “Designers read about design in order to stimulate growth and change in their own work. Critical writing also inspires new lines of questioning and opens up new theoretical directions.” The role that technology plays in shaping design is that it helps designers illustrate or create their vision. Designing is all about creativity, and new technology helps all ideas become pieces of art. Munari brought up how feeling complete in life will only feel complete with him feeling that everything we live with is a work of art, “When the objects we use everyday and the surrounding we live in have become in themselves a work of art, then we shall be able to say that we have achieved a balanced life”. 

The urgent problem that designers are facing today would be recognition. Since the amount of designers is so much in the present day, it’s difficult for every designer to be recognized. Although the internet is a big help in terms of promotion or just posting your work in general, the amount of people there with the same idea is extremely high. There’s many other urgent problems like artists plagiarizing off of each other and the original artist doesn’t get credit. A designer is responsible for solving these problems because they are in charge of creating so many designs and making the people of the world feel a certain type of way. In other words designers have the responsibility to always have art and design alive and to have it always go forward.
