Industrial Design

"If the point of contact between the product and the people becomes a point of friction, then the industrial designer has failed. If, on the other hand, people are made safer, more comfortable, more eager to purchase, more efficient -- or just plain happier -- the designer has succeeded."
Henry Dreyfuss, Designing for People (1955)
found in the Preface to Software Psychology, Ben Shneiderman (1980)
