We all designers have come across clients with varied interests, understanding & exposure. Oh yes they also come with a band of requirements to fit in a 500 sq.ft flat which would nicely fit in a 1000 sq.ft. What has the economics done to us, what has estate agencies done to the asthetics. we call 12' x 10' as master bedroom !
Somewhere it does hamper one's design but new designer are also turning up & fighting odds. we have seen some foreign designers who make custom made designs to fit all the list in that tiny space & very well done. Look at the lavatory of an aircraft, look at the Dilip Chabbria designs they are doing it so can we.
What the clients need to understand here is that there is a boyce's principle(excuse spelling) in all aspects of life. You push the time taken for work down, you push the resources less & cost shall shoot up. they is always a boyouncy working at all points. Clients who insist all aspects that it should be at minimum cant get a great design. Aircraft Lavatory comes at a cost in a good time span with maximum resource at disposal.
Design trends fall out or in mostly due to such issues. Like in one site we used army wooden trunks with nice rubberwood as dining table at low cost, yet another site we did entire office in exposed MDf panels. they surely played a lot to asthetics & changed the trends too.

If We had done it
I know it sounds like a line out from a masala movie..but wonder if we stopped complaining about the way things are and consider if we had done it then how would we do it. This will solve a lot in getting a good work done with your little twist in the thought.
example: we hear people, friends talking about how someone died due to rash driving or cause one did not wear helmet but in real life how many times we ignore the same n bluntly do it without following rules. Lets not give a reason to the police guy to get corrupt by charging u n tempting u go Scott free after giving him easy cash, lets not give our dear ones a reason to get angry or sorry after an accident.
lets be a good citizens...n think if we had to do it n if we had done it can we change now which we have with us
