OXO Product Design - one bad apple in the bunch
First, the bad: my OXO coffee mug (1st image below) has never satisfied my needs - it leaks, has something rattling within interior, is not dishwasher safe, and looks immature.
Most other OXO products have wonderfully simple, useful designs; seen below are all items that I own and would highly recommend (except the coffee mug). The designers at OXO ascribe to an interesting design principle termed Universal Design - as stated on their website:"The concept of Universal Design makes room for all users by taking as many needs as possible into consideration in the design process. It is important to note that Universal Design does not mean designing products fully usable by everybody, since there is no product that can truly fulfill the needs of all users. But when all users' needs are taken into consideration in the initial design process, the result is a product that can be used by the broadest spectrum of users."
