In the consumer product industry, good design has become mainstream. The marketplace is flush with plug-and-play iMac computers, easy-to-grasp Oxo can openers, and biomechanically refined Aeron office chairs. These products don't just look great.

As a result, consumers have become much more aware of good design than ever before.
