'Good design is as little design as possible'
It is the 10th commandment that is repeated more often than others. It's a nice, catchy phrase that's good for repeating. And it seems to go well with the designs of many designers and people nowadays.
For me, what I like the most out of these 10 is number 6, 'Good design is honest'
For me, as a customer of many products I would like the product's design to be as truthful as possible because I won't want to buy something and it turns out to be what I didn't expect.
