Product Description
Synopsis
Combining a wide-ranging discussion of the major issues of design with detailed and practical information, Norman Potter explores the possibilities and limits of design, considers the designer as an artisan and as artist, and asks: "What is good design?" The volume seeks to prompt its readers to think and act for themselves. First published in 1969, it is reissued to present the enduring core of Potter's arguments. An afterword by Robin Kinross sets the work and its author in their contexts.
