Thanks for the info, though I’ve been interested in Dieter Rams’ design most of my life I just watched that documentation for the first time. It was some time well spent.

Didn&#x27;t immediately recognize the name...<p><i>Dieter Rams (born 20 May 1932) is a German industrial designer who is most closely associated with the consumer products company Braun, the furniture company Vitsœ, and the functionalist school of industrial design. His unobtrusive approach and belief in &quot;less, but better&quot; (Weniger, aber besser) design has influenced the practice of design, as well as 20th century aesthetics and culture</i><p>...<p>Rams documentary<p><i>On 22 June 2016, filmmaker Gary Hustwit announced his documentary Rams and launched a Kickstarter campaign for the project. The full-length documentary features in-depth conversations with Rams about his design philosophy, the process behind some of his most iconic designs, his inspiration and his regrets. Some of the funds raised in the Kickstarter campaign also helped to preserve Rams&#x27;s design archive in cooperation with the Dieter and Ingeborg Rams Foundation.</i><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Dieter_Rams" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Dieter_Rams</a><p>(that said I get &quot;Sorry Because of its privacy settings, this video cannot be played here.&quot;)
