Apple Macintosh
The first Apple Mac is an example of a iconic and classical design, because it was the first of its kind and has an omnipresence in the computer technology industry. Many other versions have taken inspiration from this design, and is a dominant design as it is highly practical - there is a mouse, a keyboard, and a screen. Its characteristics make the design highly practical and creates the fundamentals of a computer.
Post-it notes
Post-it notes are another example of classical design -its ability to be a removable yet adhesive piece of writing stationary was the first of its kind to be introduced. It has a simple design quality that can be mass-produced and is used in various types of environments, like schools, offices, and many other places. Its image in itself is also an indicator of classic design - the product carries itself.
