if everyone believes that everything has been done before, than we would not have progress
we continue to progress. design styles change over and over.
from 45 degree angles to dirty david carson style, and that damn deer / elk thing. it changes.
but only good design lives over trends and wins test of time.
eames for examples, still lives and looks amazing after 40-50 years

Design is not about the image that is produced. It is about the conditions wherein the design exists.
What would Dutch Design have been without imitation? It would not exist. And today’s tools provide even more opportunity to copy. Not only that, they force you to copy. (Isn’t it weird that all designers work with the same software?) This is only the beginning. Strong design reproduces itself. Make sure your work will be copied. Stimulate your own imitators.
Copy
Appropriate
Imitate
Assemble
Mimic
Use
Fuse
Misuse
Don’t be shy about it«
although that reads a lot like the site neue just posted .. i actually wrote it and am taking credit for the thinking behind it as well.

- MrD0
if you keep telling your self that everything has been done before, you will never create something your own.
