Wrote an article on McDonald Hamburger, as marketing research, based on meat the amount of pickle and sauce. Approach to writing, constant effort to convenience people that everything is a design. Design isn't going to get anywhere until people realize that the things they created were not complete until people wee able to take in to account the situation that it was being designed for. Situation design is his idea on how things are designed and the situation for the design they are incorporated in. Products have a life of how long they will stay in style.
