Letter: Letters: Good design

Published 30 November 1991

From ROBIN OAKLEY-HILL

I would personally give the Bad Design Award to the Designer of the
Earth’s biosphere. Anything that was so obviously meant to last, and can
be so spectacularly damaged in a few decades by homo sapiens, must have
a really serious design fault somewhere.
