All designed objects, whether conceived by an architect, artist, graphic designer, industrial designer, or landscape architect, tell a story.
Their stories can sometimes be discerned easily, and at other times need to be discovered through thoughtful consideration. The story can be as simple as a metaphor or as complex as a novel.
