Design; Finger Print

We look at art as design, buildings, sculptures, books, films, adverts! but why not ourselves?

Take our finger print for example, it is unique to us, it is our own personal identification system, it is perfectly formed and shaped and is renewable, free and available for us to view 24/7 at our own pleasure. I cant think of any other design that matches that criteria.

SO CAN OUR FINGERPRINTS BE CALLED DESIGN???

In my opinion yes, nature is classed as deign and also as a work of art in some cases and we are nature. Our finger prints are unique to us but other nature has there own fingerprints with there own unique 'design'. Trees have there circles of life once cut, dogs have there paw prints even each specific coral in the ocean has its own unique pattern design like our fingerprints.
Although we cannot change or colour our fingerprint like we would a painting I still think it is classed s a form of design.
