The Laws of Simplicity

The Laws of Simplicity is a book by John Maeda. He thinks that technology has made our lives more full, yet at the same time we've become uncomfortably full. Achieving simplicity in the digital age became his personal mission. Through his journey he has discovered that the topic simplicity is really complex. He has reached 10 Laws to keep design, technology, business ans life simple.

1. Law 1: Reduce (The simplest way to achieve simplicity is through thoughtful reduction.)
2. Law 2: Organize (Organization makes a system of many appear fewer.)
3. Law 3: Time (Savings in time feel like simplicity.)
4. Law 4: Learn (Knowledge makes everything simpler.)
5. Law 5: Differences (Simplicity and complexity need each other.)
6. Law 6: Context (What lies in the periphery of simplicity is definitely not peripheral.)
7. Law 7: Emotion (More emotions are better than less.)
8. Law 8: Trust (In simplicity we trust.)
9. Law 9: Failure (Some things can never be made simple.)
