Task 5 - Ross Lovegrove

I found Ross to be quite inspirational. He successfully touches the importance to have a new different vision for the 21st century. To design things that are beautiful because they are derived from the one real beauty (nature) and not thing that we percieve to be beautiful that are influenced from unnatural forms, as he comments Ross doesn't attempt to create funky objects, i think, and generally speaking they are funky or visually stunning objects beause they share with us something in common, nature, and as Ross said we are instinctive human beings that once lived in caves.

He opens up a box of possibilties, a box whose existence hasnt been known until now as material technology has advanced so far. I felt a really sense of progress as his ideas unfolded, and thought how people must have felt 200 years ago when aluminium was first being used and how vastly availble it is today. I cant help but see a revolution unfolding as Ross delves into what seems so logical to be our future, in design, nature and art.
