If one accepts as correct that: it is not that the object is functional, but rather the relationship one establishes with one another through it that makes the object functional, it becomes quite obvious to conclude that, the (designer) focus should be on the relationship between subjects, rather than on the object alone, as the only way to avoid the object becoming too much the reflected image of the subject who created it, and therefore never completely an object but always partly (its) subject!
