Author: Werner van Hoeydonck, Christian Kern, Eva Sommeregger (Eds.)
With this solid introduction to the subject of parquet deformation, the editors tackle a topic that has a particular appeal in the age of digital design. The book brings together scholarly articles by the most important authors in the field with archival material from Ulm, with illustrated two- and three-dimensional works created at the Technical University of Vienna. Written for anyone interested in the fields of design and geometry, it aims both to inform and inspire. This form of geometric transformation, best known through the work of M.C. Escher, was introduced into design curricula by the American professor William S. Huff at the Ulm School of Design, Germany in the 1960s.
