Design and the Design Method

  • Chapter
The Design Method

Abstract

This book is about design and designers. It is concerned with the process of design: a process the pattern of which is the same whether it deals with the design of a new oil refinery, the construction of a cathedral, or the writing of Dante’s Divine Comedy. Much of practical design is humdrum but the same pattern persists.
