元々はブラウンのオフィスの再設計のために建築家とインテリアデザイナーとして雇われたディーター・ラムスは、ブラウンの印象的なデザイン言語を開発し、優れたデザインの10原則を定義した一流のデザイナーの一人になりました。これらは、現在でも通用するデザインマニュアルとなっています。
1 革新的である
イノベーションの可能性は、決して汲み尽くされていない。技術の進歩は常に、革新的な設計のための新しい機会を提供している。
2 実用をもたらす
製品は使うために購入される。機能だけでなく、心理的にも美的な面においても一定の基準を満たす必要がある。良いデザインは、製品の有用性を際立たせ、それを損なう可能性のあるものをすべて無視する。
3 美的である
製品の美しさは有用性の一部である。なぜなら私たちが毎日使う製品は、私たちの個性や幸せに影響を与えるからだ。美しいものは、よく考えられて作られたものだけである。
4 理解をもたらす
良いデザインは製品の構造を明確にする。さらに、製品自体に語らせることができる。説明の必要がないこと、これがベストだ。
5 謙虚である
目的を持った製品というものは、道具と似たところがある。それは、装飾的なものでも芸術品でもない。だから、製品のデザインは使う者に自己表現の余地を与えられるよう、中立的であり、主張してはいけない。
6 誠実である
製品を実際以上に革新的に、パワフルに、あるいは価値のあるものに見せない。守ることができない約束で消費者を操ろうとしない。
7 Good design is long-lasting.
It avoids being fashionable and therefore never appears antiquated. Unlike fashionable design, it lasts many years - even in today’s throwaway society.
8 Good design is thorough to the last detail.
Nothing must be arbitrary or left to chance. Care and accuracy in the design process show respect towards the consumer.
9 Good design is environmentally friendly.
Design makes an important contribution to the preservation of the environment. It conserves resources and minimises physical and visual pollution throughout the lifecycle of the product.
10 Good design is as little design as possible.
Less, but better - because it concentrates on the essential aspects, and the products are not burdened with nonessentials. Back to purity, back to simplicity.
1953 | Braun Factory
Braun Multimix Blender
The 50's established the milkshake as a western staple, enabled in part by the Multimix, the state-of-the-art blender with a detachable mixing glass container. It cuts ingredients with industrial-grade efficacy. Still widely in use today.
1957 | Gerd Alfred Müller
KM3/31
A hugely influential blender or “food processor” as it was known that birthed a whole new product category: “kitchen machines” or appliances. With its hyper-reduced, simple and useful design one of the most influential industrial products of all time.
1963 | Reinhold Weiss
KSM 1/11
Design doesn’t get much more minimalistic than this: a coffee grinder so purpose-built it needed just one, centrally placed button to operate. Finely ground beans were just a finger click away.
1963 | Reinhold Weiss
HT 2
This toaster’s sleek, reduced design so inspired renowned artist Richard Hamilton that he based one of his works (aptly titled ‘Toaster’) on it. Oh, and it also browned bread to perfection.
1972 | Florian Seiffert
KF 20
With a stacked, vertical design that resembled a water tower, the KF 20 was known as the Aromaster. Instantly recognizable for its unconventional shape, this coffee maker added a touch of the extraordinary to everyday morning filter coffee.
1972 | Jürgen Greubel, Dieter Rams
MPZ 22
This electric juicer, also known as the citromatic, was a dependable and incredibly easy-to-clean staple of kitchens across the world for decades. It took over two decades before Braun decided an update to the original design was due.
1981 | Ludwig Littmann
MR 6
A precursor of the more sophisticated MR 500, the MR 6 was sturdy and tough, meaning it could blend foods that other products couldn't handle. An important stepping stone on the way to perfecting the handheld blender.
1984 | Hartwig Kahlcke
KF 40
This coffeemaker was somehow controversial within Braun, being made of cost-efficient polypropylene rather than sturdier polycarbonate, Braun's go-to plastic. Hence the KF 40's corrugated surface states a design solution that won over Dieter Rams.
2016 | Markus Orthey, Ludwig Littmann
MultiQuick 9
An all-round food blender that condensed the functionalities of devices many times its size into a simple, handheld 'wand'. The definition of reduced design: compact, yet powerful.
