Making tangible connections between theory and practice, ideas
and form, this book encourages debate about the artistic,
conceptual, and cultural significance of the way things look. What
are the metaphysical concepts at the heart of design education,
theory, and philosophy? Why do we assume that design is impossible
to teach?
This book challenges the traditional foundations of perception
and takes an imaginative, radical approach, setting itself apart
from the traditions of analytical philosophy, evolutionary
psychology, and phenomenology which underpin much of current design
theory and discourse. The new definition of perception produces
startling consequences for conceptions of language, intelligence,
meaning, the senses, emotions and subjectivity. This is an
innovative, fresh view on design and how we can improve it for both
practitioners and students in the architecture and design fields as
well as philosophers.
