Design! The Secret Weapon
You want it to work, be well-built, AND look good! You need the complete design
process, so to this end Graham will lead you through the three essential ‘Pillars
of Design’: Function, Construction, and Proportion. ‘Function’
will teach you how to make sure that what you build is right for the job it
has to do: it’s all about purpose, function, and ergonomics. ‘Construction’
will teach you what you need to know about the material — how to choose
the right wood, the appropriate construction technique, and the best joinery
for the purpose. ‘Proportion’ lets you in on the secrets of good
design, so that no matter how good (or bad) your finish, no matter how tight
(or loose) your joints, your finished project will LOOK good and be an object
of beauty, grace, and felicitous design that you can be proud of and pass
down through future generations.
