Good design is often associated with beauty. For LinkedIn Influencer John Maeda, a major figure in the field of design and technology, it isn't that simple.

For a business to develop better products, they must do more than pick a pleasing color scheme and slick layout; they must understand who their users are.

He also points out three design growth areas—classical design, design thinking, and computational design—and shines a spotlight on the link between inclusion and design.
