Armstrong believes that Design in the world today is something that is always changing, constantly being updated in some new form of way or fashion. Making designers having to constantly study and learn more as time passes by. To understand and make a new design that comes to light, into something better and more new. Munari believes that in todays world, art is something that should be available to the masses and not just those who have a high status in life. “as long as art stands aside from the problems of life it will only interest very few people”. If people don’t have access to art and design then very few will gain any interest to become the next artist or designer for the future. Art and design play a huge part in todays world. No matter what it is and where, someone put thought and heart into what it looks like. It also helps open of doors to new and old businesses, and allowing them to continue and open up opportunities for others
What helps distinguish all fields of art and design from each other is how each one thinks to solve a problem. Each one thinks differently about similar problems and can create different stories with the work they make. Along with conveying a message through different types of media, different types of ideas and how to make them and how they work on creating different concepts. No matter what field of design or art anyone is in they should always concern themselves with theoretical questions so that they can open their perspective on a situation. Maybe give them more answers, more ideas and other things that normally they might have said no to but now would consider it or maybe save it for future projects. Similar to how designers must write down and draw anything that comes to their heads. No matter how silly or out right just not fit with what they work. It theoretically can spark more. Asking what can be possible and why along with how.
Technology has been a huge part of design now that most are started on paper but will eventually move to digitization or print. As well that technology makes it easier for designers to work from home with all the tools available to them and easier to show client progress without having to waste time and wait for the next day. Not to mention gain informations through any research they may need but with technology constantly advancing that also means that designers will always have more problems to solve and work ahead of them. Designers will always be responsible for these problems, to solve and make that solution happen for the clients. Whether it be for a phone, a TV or our computers. They are in charge of how it looks, feels and attracts a consumer.
