Preview The Nature and Aesthetics of Design

Description:
In this brilliant exposition of the many facets of good design, David Pye investigates the scientific nature of the function and its tenuous relationship to form. He explores the priority of economy, physical components, and manufacturing techniques and clarifies design's relative utilitarian and aesthetic roles. It establishes a basic theory of design where none existed before. Written in a lucid style and jargon-free language, it is a healthy correction to critiques of the past century. This is a penetrating, provocative, and utterly stimulating book that everyone should read--for design is everywhere.
