He conveys a scientifically sound understanding of the underlying methods, modes of action, processes and objectives. His approach represents a shift in perspective: it is not about charging a brand with exclusive meanings, but the primary goal should be to reach as many people as possible and increase their willingness to buy a brand's productGood design makes a significant contribution to the success of a brand by making it perceptible, recognizable and memorable, and thereby facilitating the purchasing process. The question of impact is, to a large extent, a question of form – the physical reality of the design and the way it is communicated.
