Helfand and Drenttel believe that designers should not design for the dumb. Designers need educate themselves in as many fields as possible as this will be beneficial to their designs. I believe this is true. The bigger your field of knowledge, the better your designs will turn out. Knowing different subjects can help influence ideas and designs. I go out of my way to learn something about everything. I guess in a sense it is kind of like playing God. according to religious texts. A God is all knowing and from this he is able to create everything and anything he wants. So, the broader our knowledge is, the more we will be able to design and create.
