K, if you mean instability in terms of austerity, i'd jave to be an idiot not to appreciate its existence - but that, i think, has negligible impact on consumer design in and around the home... if anything, today's poorer live in an age of increasing plenty, thanks to the very same 'Chimerical' feedback mechanism that's impoverishing us in the first place.
Who cares if the economy's going down the shitter if I can pop down to my local China-importing megaMart and buy items that would've cost me more last year?
What impact does that have on design? None, other than more of the same.
- True, there's no shortage of cheap consumer shit. Maybe that is the trend.qoob
