Why isn’t all design universal?
Isn’t the goal of design to meet the needs of the most people possible? Today we distinguish between universal design and non-universal design which means most of the design excludes a major part of the people (silver agers, handicapped people…). It is self-understandig that design is perceived as something exclusive (it excludes).
How can design look like that is including in all senses? Design for the masses?

could this be it?
Looking for a product that re-interpretes and reflects mediocrity:
- taking up something traditional/average
- taking up a tendency of the masses (for doing-yourself)
- taking up the demand for something cheap
and combining it with a sense of self-irony
Could this be it?
