For the 4th anniversary episode of Design Critique, Michael Graves
and Tony Hron from the Michael Graves Design Group join Timothy
Keirnan to discuss product design:
* The wine glasses that [yellow tail] wines commissioned Michael
Graves to make for their new wine[tails] mixed drinks. Pix will be
at the show's blog page as soon as they are released.
* Tim's Hamilton Beach 6-Speed Hand Mixer, a part of the Michael
Graves Design collection at Target stores. Pix are at the blog page
now, DesignCritique.net.
* General design discussion.
* Designing for accessibility in a world that still does not value
universal design as it should.
Tim closes the episode with some listener feedback and his own
reflections on doing the show for the past four years.
