I found a great site full of food for thought on semantic design and the collection of open source data for everything from architecture to topology, http://accuracyandaesthetics.com/. There is a wealth of ideas which allign with many of the contemporary ideas we are being exposed to in school. One of the posts which caught my attention, http://accuracyandaesthetics.com/1053, just an interesting read but this is just the tip of the iceberg on this site. It could become a great place to pluck ideas from to aid us in our own discussions. S.

I liked this topic with some alterations:
ReplyDelete...some 'designs' are arbitrarily assigned simply to fill in all the blanks. Attributes can be unnecessarily assigned....every 'design feature' counts the same whether it strikes directly at heart of the matter or simply fills in a blank.
