The nice thing about the ethos of the BH is that you could approach the design of a spaghetti strainer with the same aesthetic concern you'd have for a sports car.

Also, "Fine art" (e.g. Mona Lisa or Rembrandt) and utility were brought closer; there was a utopian vision that all people at all levels of society could share in an enriched sense of aesthetics in their daily lives thru their exerience of everyday objects.

As far as our cars are concerned the teardrop shape of a polished river rock and the original 911s were total BH.

Adding BS like vents, wings, slats, tires bigger than necessary, is a fact of life these days. It's the result of a lack of emphasis on the arts in education. The BH had that covered too. Science and math were just as impt as cultural studies and aesthetics.

We definitely failed to incorporate anything of the brilliance the BH ideaology had to offer to our society (in USA and Europe); it sounds really pitiful, almost ridiculous, to go on and say: try not to do it as a guy who's purchasing a quintessentially _German_ car; one which was originally married to BH ideals.
