At last a mathematical explanation of how art works presented in a manner we can all understand Kimberly Elam takes the reader on a geometrical journey lending insight & coherence to the design process by exploring the visual relationships that have foundations in mathematics as well as the essential qualities of life Geometry of Design takes a close look at a broad range of twentieth-century examples of design architecture & illustration (from the Barcelona chair to the paintings of Georges Seurat from the Braun hand blender to the Conico kettle) revealing underlying geometric structures in their compositions Explanations & techniques of visual analysis make the inherent mathematical relationships evident & a must-have for anyone involved in art design or architecture graphic arts The book focuses not only on the classic systems of proportioning such as the golden section & 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 ...

The Geometry of Type explores 100 traditional & modern typefaces in detail with a full spread devoted to each entry Characters from each typeface are enlarged & annotated to reveal key features anatomical details & the finer often-overlooked elements of type design which shows how these attributes affect mood & readability Sidebar information lists the designer & foundry the year of release & the different weights & styles available while feature boxes explain the origins & best uses for each typeface such as whether it is suitable for running text or as a display font for headlines To help the reader spot each typeface in the wider world the full character set is shown & the best letters for identification are highlighted This beautiful & highly practical work of reference for font spotters designers & users is a close-up celebration of typefaces & great type design ...

Geometry Snacks is a mathematical puzzle book filled with geometrical figures & questions designed to challenge confuse & ultimately enlighten enthusiasts of all ages Each puzzle is carefully designed to draw out interesting phenomena & relationships between the areas &

Dimensions of various shapes Furthermore unlike most puzzle books the authors offer multiple approaches to solutions so that once a puzzle is solved there are further surprises insights & challenges to be had As a teaching tool Geometry Snacks enables teachers to promote deep thinking & debate over how to solve geometry puzzles Each figure is simple but often deceptively tricky to solve
- allowing for great classroom discussions about ways in which to approach them By offering numerous solution approaches the book also acts as a tool to help encourage creativity & develop a variety of strategies to chip away at problems that often seem to have no obvious way in Contents 1 What fraction is shaded?2 Find the missing angle 3 What is the area?4 Prove it 5 Sangaku Ed Southall is a teacher trainer at Huddersfield University in the UK & the author of Yes But Why?
