Happy birthday to Dieter Rams—the design legend who made simplicity timeless and knobs fashionable! Your iconic years at Braun have reminded the world that less truly is more, though we still can't resist owning at least ten of your well-designed masterpieces. You've shown generations how good design can change lives (and maybe inspire a certain smartphone company).Your famous "Ten Principles of Good Design" remain forever relevant—both practical guides and commandments for creatives everywhere. So here's wishing you a celebration as clean-lined, functional, and enduringly delightful as one of your creations. Cheers to another year keeping minimalism endlessly interesting!
