DESIGN SCRAPBOOK - designer Margret Howell on 'good' design

I prefer clothes that get better with age – cotton raincoats that get softer, moleskin that wears in well. We should respect what it takes to produce something that is of a quality to last, and I feel we should be thinking about that now, especially in terms of protecting the environment. (Howell, 2013).
