Title: Design and Analysis
Description: Rotterdam, 010 Publishers, 1997. Softcover. Green and blue glossy color wraps, 224 pp. Profuse B/W illustrations and designs. In English. From the back cover: Design and Analysis is an insightful, interdisciplinary exploration of the diversity of analytic methods used by architects, designers, urban planners, and landscape architects to understand the structure and principles of the built environment. Developed by a team headed by Bernard Leupen at Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands, Design and Analysis defies borders of history, geography, and discipline, tracing the evolution of design principles from ancient Greece to the 20th century. Using historical examples from architecture, urban design, and landscape architecture, the book defines an ordered system that enables the design student or professional to identify the factors that influence designers' decisions, and shows how to relate them to the finished project. The authors introduce the analytical drawing as a time-tested means to obtaining insight into the design process. Over 100 line drawings are featured in all. VG .
