Art/Literary - Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting / text about the work of a designer | | English term or phrase: to spit from my safe cod | While hardcore industrial design right now focuses on producing in China, it is interesting for me how I can give a life to ‘concepts’ in a broader context.

Explanation:
oder darüberherziehen.
Vielleicht eine Alternative.

Das bietet nämlich a) Sicherheit und b) Überblick.
