Jinsop Lee explores the idea of appealing to all five senses in his design speech. He claims that most designs only appeal to sight and sometimes touch. Why not design things that look and feel great, but also appeal to one’s sense of smell, taste and sound? He talks about a clock his friend designed, that uses smells to tell time.

Graham Hill tells viewers what is most important in any good design in his talk. He claims that while good aesthetics show that a designer cares about doing a good job, functionality should always come first. Designs should always look to solve a problem in a creative way.
