Summary/Abstract: This study is intended to conduct a theoretical research ofRomanian design domain, relating to a wider context, that is art theory,and subsequently resorting to fundamental references. It relates to thestatus of the objects that are unique concerning the way they claim tobe essentially artworks. Throughout this article the concern fordefining a universe of objects is obvious, treated within the frameworkof object's existential conditions. From this point of view, thepreliminaries supporting its justification relate to Heidegger'sphilosophical concepts, also regarding the functionalist paradigm andultimately some references are made to symbolism and artisticexpression. As a natural continuity, the current state of modernproduced objects is associated with the development of thecontemporary society. In this stage, the design is treated separately intodistinct branches, outlining the particular situation of Romanian designthrough specific data and relevant examples.
