So I found something interesting on Core77.com Click here for the original article. Now this is something I can get into. It's comical, yet functional. Irreverent, yet practical. As you can tell for the picture, it's a slide for playground made in the shape of an elephant. No more description needed.
Why can't design be irreverent, funny yet practical. Sometimes I wonder if most designers mainly design things for their peers (that small group of people you went to art school with that always get-it because they've been soooo institutionalized) and not for the public in which they might serve.
What's wrong with low brow humor? Do designers have to be soooo goddman pretentious? High and mighty? Elitist?
