A product can be manufactured in many ways, but most designers know
a handful of techniques only. With specially commissioned diagrams,
case studies and photographs of the manufacturing process, Making
It uses contemporary design as a vehicle to describe over 120
production processes. Each process is also evaluated in terms of
sustainability and its effects on the environment. Making It
appeals to product, interior, furniture and graphic designers who
need access to a range of production methods, as well as to all
students of design. The expanded edition includes six new processes
and a new section on joining.
Over the last ten years there has been a huge growth in the area of
materials for design, but most books on this subject deal with
advanced, semi-formed materials (that is, materials sold as sheet,
rod, tube, etc.). This book provides much-needed information on the
raw materials, and the low-down on how these can be used. Organized
into three sections embracing grown, oil-based and mined materials,
each entry includes information on key features, typical
applications, production processes and sustainability issues. This
fact-packed book will allow professional designers and students
from a range of disciplines to understand in simple, exciting,
visual terms the different qualities and features of materials.
