Book Description

June 1, 1968 0876020074 978-0876020074
A fresh attack on the designing assignment, this book is more than a philosophy. It is a plan of action from a world-famous designer who starts with the advantage of an extraordinary talent, but then immerses herself in brick-by-brick labour to achieve her ends; who embraces her existing, often limiting conditions, and uses them to discipline her imagination. This book, written with charm, wit, and humanity, and generously illustrated, is directed to the working theatre artist who seeks to expand his own knowledge, enlarge his own experience, explore his own capabilities, achieve his own individual style.
(The price has been discounted due to the age of these books.)
