Sketching: the Basics

Sketching

Following the global success of Sketching, authors Koos Eissen and Roselien Steur now bring out the sequel entitled ‘Sketching: the Basics’. In fact, prequel would be a better word for this book, since it is aimed at the novice designer. ‘The Basics’ explains the rudiments of learning to draw both clearly and comprehensively using step-by-step illustrations, examples and strategies.

A book on sketching for product designers has long been desired. The lack of a good manual led the authors of this book, who both teach design drawing techniques, to take the task into their own hands. The result is an incredibly broad and practical survey of sketching techniques for product designers. This book can be regarded as a standard book on design sketching for product design students.

The Exceptionally Simple Theory of Sketching

Product Sketches

Designing Diagrams

This is a fully illustrated book with over one thousand product sketches organized in -chapters covering the main product categories that designers design for, such as furniture, electronic devices, household appliances, accessories, garments, et cetera. A wonderfully inspirational book for anyone who wishes to improve their sketching abilities.

‘Designing Diagrams’ is a guide to the world of diagrammatic presentation of facts, thoughts, processes and relations. The effective design of a diagram is an art form in itself; it takes an understanding of the practice to create effective diagrams, and this book presents the -information and inspiration that will allow designers to put the art into practice.

People who cannot draw well usually think that professional sketching is a complex and difficult process. However, after reading this book you will see that even the most complex sketches are just a structure of very simple, yet confidently drawn segments built on each other. Inserted in the front cover are 14 practice sheets on thick paper for the reader to practice with adding shadows to basic shapes. Author: George Hlavács | 48 pages + 14 practice sheets | 22 x 17 cm | paperback | £ 10.95 | ISBN 978 90 6369 334 3
