Back in the 1960s, the acronym "KISS"-"Keep it simple, stupid"-began showing up on bumper stickers, billboards, and t-shirts across the country. A design principle first used by the U.S. Navy, "Keep it simple, stupid" is defined by the belief that most systems work best if they are kept simple rather than made complex. Throughout history, this sentiment has been championed by many esteemed artists and thinkers, among them Leonardo da Vinci ("Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication") and Mies Van Der Rohe ("Less is more"). And in the decades since it became a cultural touchstone, everyone from software designers to animators has hopped on the KISS bandwagon.
