**Beware of engineers! (Said with affection— I am one.)
**Beware of MBAs (Said with no affection, even though I am one.)
**The education bit is less about aesthetics and more about encouraging individualism—
to take a risk on design, you must have a burning desire to do things differently.
(Schools—ours, yours, everyone’s—are brilliant at suppressing creativity and
excessive shows of passion.)
**Capturing “best practice” only goes so far.
