Beauty and Function

Prompt: "It's important that my products are beautiful but it matters that they are functional." How do you feel about this?

I have a pretty black stove and new beautiful Chevy Cruz car but they if they aren't functional, why have them? I have to cook and drive. I love my pretty knick knacks like tea pots, wolves, dolls and they are just there for beauty and for me to admire. My crock pot is black and I just use it for cooking. My washing machine is white but as long as it works, I am okay with it. I enjoy our new cherry desk with all the drawers and cabinets and I am quite pleased with it. Our last desk was oak and ugly. Functional? Just barely. No room for anything. If my pretty blue couch fell apart, I would have to buy a new one. We need a couch.

I don't like ugly things. I need beauty and functional. Garages aren't pretty but this is where the cars stay and other needed stuff. When I need to buy new things, I try to buy pretty things as well as functional. I see magazines of old beautiful houses with old things that are no longer pretty but they do add charm to an old Victorian House. Beauty and non beauty and functional things can work hand in hand.
