Does style really ll?
By Richard Tomkins
How can the appearanee of a product be more important than what it does? I mean, what u is a designer kettle if its handle becomes too hot to hold or if the spout pours water everywhere but in the cup?
11 It ro again last week when James Dyson, British inventor of the Dyson baglcss vacuum cleaner that has sold in millions around the world, resigned as chairman of Londonos Design Muum・ It is widely believed that Mr Dyson felt that the muum put too much emphasis on style and fashion at the expen of rious industrial design・
In his resignation letter, Mr Dyson accud the muum of not keeping true to itlf. 12 Muums everywhere can no longer afford to be exclusive centres of scholarship and learning・ Among rivalry for sponsorship, they must u exhibitions of populist culture, nice cafes and shops or, best of all、a new building by Frank Gehry to increa visitor numbers ・

But surely you would have to be a very shallow person to think something^ appearance was more important than what it did?
