Bending rules for design

In the article Creative Anarchy at Its Very Best it talks about the ways on how to bend rules to make a design better and give it more of an eye catching theme. The author argues that following rules to graphic design will make your design boring, lame, uncreative so instead of following them bend the rules a little bit and go in your own path "Design is everywhere. Poor design creates chaos." (Denise Bosler).
The article though has many strengths like giving quotes from famous people and researching them to find a quote from Michelangelo. Another strength would be the creative topic, title and picture which is grabbing the readers attention. What the author can work on is keeping the reader attentions there are points where it just started going from interesting to boring to interesting and that can be fixed, but right now thats annoying.
The authors general conclusion in this entire article is your knowledge is limitless it just requires bending rules and going your own route.

Critique 
1. The author stays on his point throughout the entire passage and continuously mentions it.
2.The evidence is very convincing and stays on topic like the transition from "poor designs creates chaos" to the ballot card box in 2000 for the U.S. presidential election.
 3. This gives very good information to help graphic designers see what you have to do to create something eye opening that catches peoples attention and makes them want what ever it's advertising.
