Good Intentions vs. Effectivity

Mine Kafon
ProContra excerpts

If in all its simplicity the Mine Kafon prevents even one soccer-playing Angolan boy's or one skipping Afghan girl's future to be blast to pieces, then this design has been more than successful.
Walter Amerika
But functionality is never totally absent. In the Mine Kafon it is. It looks like the Mine Kafon's fans have suspended their critical capacities, blinded by the designer's good intentions and the poetic formal design of the product. But Dutch Design should really be looking for another icon.
