TEDTalks [electronic resource (video)] : Timothy Prestero - Design for People, Not Awards / TED Conferences LLC.
Designer Timothy Prestero thought he'd designed the perfect incubator for newborns in the developing world - but his team learned a hard lesson when it failed to go into production. In this TEDTalk, Prestero presents a manifesto on the importance of designing for real-world use rather than for accolades.
