Form or Function?

[Wanescotting]

I say "Function until I die".

I go by this when I am organizing my room, the bathroom, the kitchen, the car, etc.

Form follows Function for me. However, there are folks in the world that want something pretty, rather than something that does the job.

 

[So]

absolutely. Function first.

But then again, I am a Functionalist (I think that's the right term) / Minimalist in my leanings on form anyway, so it's not too hard to match the two.

Substance over form!

Oh, wait, I thought we were talking accounting.

I guess I am hardcore, because when I go to buy a new car(speaking of, I need to do that soon), my first question will be "does it have two cup holders, and how ergonomically are the controls setup"?

Form can be a funtion. Such as Aesthtics is a function of pleasure to the eye. But yeah function here. Container Store is my Home away from Home.

This is a geek board. You really think Form is gonna win over function?

Now go to a cat lover's board or something and ask the same question.

A perfect marriage of the two. But if they get divorced, I'm livin' with Function.

Both=)

for example: Gyrodec

Both, it's only money.
