Kimberly Elam takes the reader on a geometrical journey, lending insight and coherence to the design process by exploring the visual relationships that have foundations in mathematics as well as the essential qualities of life. She takes a close look at a broad range of twentieth-century examples of design, architecture, and illustration, revealing underlying geometric structures in their compositions. The book focuses not only on the classic systems of proportioning, such as the golden section and root rectangles, but also on less well known proportioning systems such as the Fibonacci series. Through detailed diagrams these geometric systems are brought to life, giving an effective insight into the design process.--From publisher description. 648 7 1900-1999|2fast 650 0 Proportion (Art) 650 0 Golden section. 650 0 Fibonacci numbers. 650 0 Composition (Art) 650 0 Art, Modern|y20th century. 650 4 Art|x20e siècle. 650 4 Composition (Art) 650 4 Fibonacci, Suites de. 650 4 Nombre d'or. 650 4 Proportions (Art) 650 7 Art, Modern.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00816615 650 7 Composition (Art)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00871739 650 7 Fibonacci numbers.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00923656 650 7 Golden section.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00944571 650 7 Proportion (Art)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01079240 650 07 Design.|0(DE-588)4011510-0|2gnd 650 07 Fibonacci-Folge.|0(DE-588)4249138-1|2gnd 650 07 Goldener Schnitt.|0(DE-588)4021529-5|2gnd 650 07 Kunst.|0(DE-588)4114333-4|2gnd 650 07 Proportionslehre.|0(DE-588)4175949-7|2gnd 650 7 Symétrie (Mathématiques)|2rasuqam 650 7 Design.|2rasuqam 650 7 Oeuvre d'art.|2rasuqam 650 7 Architecture.|2rasuqam 650 7 Art.|2rasuqam 650 7 Nombre d'or.|2rasuqam 650 7 Suite de Fibonacci.|2rasuqam 650 17 Ontwerpen.|2gtt 650 17 Meetkunde.|2gtt 650 17 Proporties.|2gtt 650 17 Proportion (Art)|2rasuqam 650 17 Composition (Art)|2rasuqam 776 08 |iOnline version:|aElam, Kimberly, 1951-|tGeometry of design.|dNew York : Princeton Architectural Press, ©2001 |w(OCoLC)644896603 830 0 Design briefs. 856 42 |3Contributor biographical information|uhttp:// catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0738/2001000257- b.html 856 42 |3Publisher description|uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/ enhancements/fy0722/2001000257-d.html 994 92|bCKE
