Purchase options and add-ons

Conditional design is the sequel to Operative Design. This book will further explore the operative in a more detailed, intentional, and perhaps functional manner. Spatially, the conditional is the result of the operative. It is not a blind result however. Both terms work together to satisfy a formal manipulation through a set of opportunities for elements such as connections and apertures.

5.0 out of 5 stars I am a design student, this book and its Operative Design companion are fascinating
Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2018

So, full disclosure I have had an MFA in painting and sculpture and used to teach art history...now I am getting an associates in design that includes a LOT of CAD and 3-D software classwork. I find these two books to be totally fascinating because of the systematic way they approach building vocabularies and design patterns for the parts of speech. I could easily see building these out as a library of essential design masses.....shoot, I may just do that and see what I can make them do.

This second book in the series, and hope they will make a third one. The book does an excellent job of explaining different design themes and builds up on the first conditional design book. Excellent size that fits in any students pocket, and can always be scanned to spark ideas, or tackle design problems.

5.0 out of 5 stars Curiosamente necesario
Reviewed in Mexico on October 3, 2021
Verified Purchase
Estudié la carrera de diseño industrial. Y uno de los puntos más difíciles de escribir fueron las "memorias gráficas" existía en ellas la necesidad de describir la geometría de los artefactos, pero más allá del lenguaje común no había un vocabulario especializado. Este libro puede cambiar eso
