Industrial design is an expression understood in all European laws and has been described as "one of the most significant cultural phenomena of this age". The design spectrum is vast. It is only necessary to consider the range of products included in the annual UK Design Council awards to understand this. For example, in 1982 awards were given to a diverse range of products from the decorative consumer goods to highly technical engineering and medical equipment - from a Hornsea tea set to clutch release bearings and a Go-Kart for disabled children.'
