The well-designed object I chose was a tape measure. It is functional, durable, and performs its task without giving any false hope of doing something greater; in Dieter Rams’s words, it is “honest”. The tape measure is a very common object, which suggests how effective and reliable its design is. Because of this, it is said to be “understandable”. A significant amount of its design features are internal, but the aesthetics are still not disappointing. It is sleek and pocket-sized to accomplish essentially any task. It is also innovative; one of the features is the tape measure lock, which conveniently locks the tape onto the desired measurement. Ultimately, my tape measure is designed exceptionally well to carry out its given function.
