Richard Buckminster “Bucky” Fuller (July 12, 1895 – July 1, 1983) was an American architect, author, designer, futurist, inventor, and visionary. He was the second president of Mensa. He lends his name to a family of complex Carbon structures called Buckminsterfullerene also known as Bucky Balls.

The wikipedia article goes on to explain Bucky in great detail.

One of my favorite tidbits, is this: Ephemeralization is a term coined by R. Buckminster Fuller. It refers to the ability of people to use technological advances to continuously do more with less.

It sums up the ultimate goal: do more, with less. (Design, Money, Words, etc.)
