Design is the revelation of one's own creativity through different art forms and art is the ever lasting expressions of one's inner most sense of creativity. For me design is a visual art, and our creations should speak for themselves raising the bar for quality of innovation, optimization and functionality. I also believe that ever one in this world is a designer as "God created heaven and left the earth for us to design..."
