The new edition of the benchmark work originally published by the Dieter and Ingeborg Rams Foundation and Jo Klatt.

Few product designs have the staying power of creations by Dieter Rams. Almost everything produced by one of the most influential designers of the twentieth century is today considered a classic. This new and revised edition of Less but Better shows once again why Dieter Rams's approach to design will be relevant for the foreseeable future Ideas of what can and must be achieved by good design are in a constant state of flux as a result of cultural and technological developments. Dieter Rams, however, came up with ten principles that advocate for a purist, almost imperceptible design.

These principles are still considered timeless fundaments of design theory and practice today: Good design is innovative. Good design makes a product useful. Good design is aesthetic. Good design helps a product to be understood. Good design is unobtrusive. Good design is honest. Good design is durable. Good design is consistent to the last detail. Good design is environmentally friendly. Good design is as little design as possible. Less but Better does not set out to be a complete documentation of Dieter Rams's body of work, nor does it claim to tell the full story of the company Braun. Rather, the book explores the ideas, criteria, and methods behind Rams's creations and reveals how a shifting culture of product manufacturing gave rise to universal design benchmarks. From his reflections on design ethics and values we can distill a clear paradigm for future design --because one principle has remained firm over the years: less is simply better.

A bit wider than I expected
Style: Coyote
I thought this was going to be a "flat" toy but was a bit surprised to see that it was more of a 3D shape than flat. It's unfortunately a bit too wide for my small/medium sized terrier so he really only grabs and chews on the tail and ears. It is pretty durable though and has held up well.

Toughest dog toy we've ever owned! Jasper approved!
Style: Elk, Style: Elk
If you are the owner of a "power chewer" who usually turns standard plushies into a snowstorm of stuffing in under five minutes, the HOUND2O Elk Stuffed Animal is the heavy-duty solution you’ve been looking for. This isn't just a toy; it’s a rugged piece of outdoor-grade gear that manages to stay "plush" while being nearly indestructible. Here is why this elk is the gold standard for aggressive chewers. The "Ballistic" Build The secret to its toughness lies in the materials. Unlike cheap fleece or thin polyester, the HOUND2O Elk is engineered for extreme durability. Ballistic Nylon Shell: The body is wrapped in high-denier ballistic nylon—the same type of material used in tactical gear. It’s incredibly resistant to punctures and tears from sharp canine teeth. Reinforced TPR Accents: The "antlers" and specific high-wear points are reinforced with Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR). This gives your dog a satisfying, grippy texture to gnaw on without compromising the toy’s structural integrity. Extreme Stitching: The seams are double-stitched and recessed, making it nearly impossible for a dog to find a "weak spot" to start a rip. Built for Adventure: This toy is marketed for "outdoor adventures," and it truly lives up to that branding: Water-Resistant & Buoyant: Unlike most stuffed animals that become soggy, heavy sponges, this elk is water-resistant and it floats. It’s the perfect companion for a trip to the lake or a game of fetch in the pool. Easy to Clean: Because the material is so dense, mud and slobber don't soak in deeply. A quick rinse with a hose or a wipe-down with soap and water makes it look brand new after a day in the dirt. High Visibility: The vibrant colors and distinct shape make it easy to spot in tall grass or murky water, so you won't lose it during a long-range game of fetch. Engaging (But Tough) Squeaker For many aggressive chewers, the goal is to "silence" the squeaker as fast as possible. Protected Internal Squeaker: The squeaker is buried deep within the ballistic layers, making it much harder for a dog to pinpoint and puncture. It provides that high-value auditory feedback that keeps dogs engaged without being an easy "kill point" for the toy. Performance at a Glance Durability - Ballistic nylon and TPR are a "power chewer" dream. Versatility - Floats, easy to clean, and works indoors/outdoors. Engagement - Mixed textures (nylon + rubber) keep dogs interested. Value - Outlasts 10 standard plush toys combined. The HOUND2O Elk is a 10/10 for any pet parent tired of throwing away shredded toys. It is incredibly tough, intelligently designed, and built to withstand the "ruffest" play. While no toy is truly 100% indestructible for every single dog, this is as close as a plush-style toy can possibly get. If your dog loves the "thrill of the hunt," try hiding this elk in some tall grass or bushes outside. Its tough shell can handle the brush, and it’s a great way to provide mental stimulation alongside a heavy chewing session!

Good looking toy that has held up well
Style: Coyote, Style: Coyote
Very durable toy that our little dog especially loves. It's the perfect size for a small dog and she doesn't destroy toys anyway so it's been great. It does feel very durable though and would take our chewer a little while to get to it as well. I'm not sure it looks like a coyote but the dogs don't seem to mind. It's an attractive toy that looks great and is constructed well so it's not like a slobbery mess when left out. Good value for the money and would make a great gift because it looks higher quality than most toys.
