Art has meaning, design has purpose.

ffs, does this question always have to be answered in such fucking pretentious language? "art is a result and design is a process"
what does that actually mean? that art is the result of the design process? that design has no end result and is therefore only process? or maybe nothing at all?
how about not putting the two together all the time as if they are the same thing?
I'm convinced that people who struggle with this question really struggle with not being the artist they wish they were and living a life where they have settled for design.
Many of us actually chose design OVER art and for us the answer to this meaningless question is both obvious and utterly irrelevant to anything

Art is selfish, Design is selfless.

Cannonball, you have been active in a lot the old Art v Design threads, why start a new one??
The reason I say that, is a made some comments in a n old thread, that I still stand by, I did a search but couldn't find it, but my answer is still NO!!!

more about art than design, but i find it so funny

I believe that art is the soul, and design is the shiny, ubiquitous skein that society wears to the dinner party of the world.
What do you guys think?
