Designers’ Ten Commandments

NewWebPick 集結中國、法國、意大利、德國、英國、日本、巴西、波蘭、美國、新西蘭各國當紅商業設計師和團隊,起草編寫了「設計師十誡」,希望對準備從事或正在從事設計行業的朋友們有所幫助,並對「設計師」這個職業有更深層次的認知。

第一條:

不論在任何情況下,都不可抄襲他人之創意;

Not to copy other’s creative work, under no circumstances;

第二條:

不可完全依賴電腦技術,電腦只是工具,無法取代你的創意。切記,你是一名設計師,不是一名電腦修圖員;

Not to rely completely on computer technology, it is a tool only and cannot substitute your creativity. Remember, you are a designer, not a computer graphic editor;

第三條:

做一個創造者,而不是流行的追隨者,現在流行的,必定是馬上過時的;

Be a creator and not a fashion-follower because a trendy style today would become an out-dated one tomorrow;

第四條:

涉足十門設計學科,卻樣樣不通,不如徹底精通一門學科;

Trying ten design fields simultaneously but badly is worst than concentrating on one field and master it;

第五條:

展現專業,不可將自己不喜愛的作品向大眾發表;

Be professional and not to release any art works that you don’t like;

第六條

不可因為作品的商業價值不高,而降低它的品質;

Not to lower the quality in view of low business value of an art work;

第七條

不可只憑個人喜好,評價他人作品;不可人云亦云;

Not to criticize other’s artwork merely on the ground of one’s preferences nor just replicate comment from someone;

第八條:

不可閉門造車;多瞭解歷史、文化和哲學,會讓作品更加豐富;

Not to create artwork without any ground. Great works usually come from the understanding of the culture, history and philosophy;

第九條

不論身份高低,要保持謙虛的態度;

Keep yourself modest to people, no matter you are just a novice or a master;

第十條:

永遠堅信:設計可以拯救你的國家,可以改變世界。

Always believe that design can save your country and change the world.
