Art vs. Design

What is the difference between art and design?
In my opinion:
Art is subjective and unique. It is personalized at a level where each individual is given the right to consider a piece of work art and no one can prove him/her otherwise. It is one-of-a-kind and is not mass produced. It is constructed with an established train of thoughts although it does not require a long process of planning ahead. Art reflects on the individual.

Design is objective. It has to apply to a greater crowd rather than a single individual. It is created to solve a problem or an inefficiency. It requires great planning ahead and can be mass produced to balance between supply and demand.

    I disagree…
    Example: in my opinion Haute Couture is a form of art with an immense design concept.
