- Handy illustrated dictionary of key design terms
- The perfect tool for students, teachers and practitioners
- If you love colour guides, you will love the form guide
The form guide hones the awareness for the design of objects and helps use terms more precisely. Using examples, a basic terminology is developed which aids communication about design in practice and education. The versatile vocabulary can be used to precisely describe product forms, constructions and impressions.
The 100 products selected for this purpose are presented with a brief description of their origin, making the form guide an informative tool, closer at hand and more comprehensive than any book could be.
Renowned design colleges and institutes have collaborated on the development of the form guide: Zurich University of the Arts (Industrial Design department), the Museum of Design Zurich (design collection), the Burg Giebichenstein University of Art and Design Halle, and idea...Institut [interior design environment and architecture], Halle (Saale) Germany.
