A woman playing Go
The world of Go. “Go uses the most elemental materials and concepts: line and
circle, wood and stone, black and white, combining them with simple rules to generate subtle strategies and complex tactics that stagger the imagination”, Iwamoto Kaoru
“While the Baroque rules of Chess could only have been created by humans, the rules of Go are so elegant, organic, and rigorously logical that if intelligent life forms exist elsewhere in the universe, they almost certainly play Go”,
Edward Lasker
“Go is to Western chess what philosophy is to double-entry accounting”, Trevanian
“Whether you win a game or lose it is a matter of fate at the time. What really counts is whether or not you played good moves”, Kajiwara Takeo

In the design world of the XXth Century, there were two stunning and absolute breakthroughs:Henry Ford coming up with the Ford T, and Coco Chanel pulling out the Little Black Dress. It was about putting together technology, production, style, mass-production and democracy.
The little black dress
As the Duchess of Windsor said: “When a little black dress is right, there is nothing else to wear in its place.”
