As design goes, this is one of the most simple, elegant and best designed objects I own. The Braun AB1 is just pure. Designed by Dieter Rams and released back in 1971 I just love it.
Ten principles defined Dieter Rams’ approach to “good design”:
Good design is innovative Good design makes a product useful Good design is aesthetic Good design helps us to understand a product Good design is unobtrusive Good design is honest Good design is durable Good design is consequent to the last detail Good design is concerned with the environment Good design is as little design as possible Back to purity, back to simplicity
