What are the top 20 “achievements in clean and simple design”? These should be well known human-made objects that are timeless and elegant.

They can span all history and come from any genre: print design, the web, architecture, food, fashion, furniture, jewelry, art, sculpture, industrial design, etc.

This may sound kind of ridiculous, but I think that the No. 2 pencil is one of the most well designed tools ever created. It does its job perfectly, includes an eraser in case mistakes are made, can be be sharpened in case the lead breaks, is highly portable, and is very inexpensive. In short, form and function converge into one very simple, timeless, and incredibly useful tool.
