(Preface) 'When designers talk about themselves, they tend to concentrate on justifying their professional existence. The central question they address is, what is the purpose of design?
This book, in contrast, starts from the assumption that the case for the value of good design has already been made. Instead, it sets itself an even more daunting brief: explaining how designers go about their work.
Where do they get their ideas? And what do they mean by an idea, anyway? What makes a piece of design work? And how can the various tools of the designer's trade be used to make it work harder? These and other equally challenging questions are tackled head-on - making this a book which will be enjoyed by anyone with an interest in design, from those studying it to the people who pay for it...'
