Summary

This quote highlights the concept of design in art as a form of appreciation and understanding of the connections and interactions between different elements within the creative process. It emphasizes that design cannot be artificially created or invented, but rather it is observed and recognized within the realm of the "fourth dimension" - a dimension that ultimately involves experiencing and feeling the design physically and visually. It suggests that design is not solely a visual concept grasped by the eyes, but a deeper understanding reached through our personal and embodied existence.
