Design is dangerous in the aspect of the designer creating or designing something in which they don't take the consideration of safety through the design. Everything in the world that was designed has a sense of safety feature expressed in it, even a gun designed to kill has a safety switch. Design can be considered dangerous when it is deceptive for example if one designs something such as a car without considering the safety features people will think and assume it's safe. Designers often recall the ethics of safety before designing something that will harm others. It can also be considered dangerous because design often opens up doors of opportunity of creating something new. The steps of design or the creative process can be applied into making anything, even weapons of mass destruction. Everything requires some design it was just the matter of the designer sitting down and question how he or she wants to effect or change the world. It can also be unintentionally dangerous because design is like bricks built on top one another. Each design can be constructed based on a previous or another design, this makes it dangerous unintentionally based on the designer because one can take a normal design and turn it into a weapon or a dangerous design. Design is necessary dangerous in a sense but it’s all based on the designers, and how the decided to design and create things. If they follow the code of ethics and design with consideration of other people, design simply cannot be dangerous.
