Shame on so-called "design"

It's rather sad to see how 'design stars' misinterpret the role of adding value to products and end up with ridiculous, irrelevant and plain stupid designs. Gorenje's product line is a prime example of this.

Collaboration with Rashid and Pininfarina have produced Swarovski crystal-encrusted fridges, LED colour-changing appliances...and other design blunders.
