With the development of digital medium, a lot of products were designed in the age, but most of them lack in consumers requires, the writer Richard Buchanan thinks if we can make a standard about good design.
From 1949 to 1955, a “good design" program produced by Kaufmann, which improved products design through a series exhibitions and educational programs, but the limited is that all of products selected by Kaufmann. In 20th century the good design more focuse on form and fuction and didn't consider the context of daily life use. and today the good design base on the past and involve "user experience". the designers explore what is useful, usable and desirable in products. However some people consider good design is the products visual, in fact they ignor the community with users, it's should be more humanization.
How to let people to interesting in ,the designers should be let people trust their products, for this porpurse the good design is described engage people to use it at the first screen. meanwhile, the good design need to find the deeply desirable by people that to identify itself and designers often through cultural expression to achieve this desirable even unexpected by this desirable.
As a conclusion, the standard of good design in digital age is to getting proper balance of usefulness, usability and desirability and distinguish good design in every individual case.
