On Creating Things Aesthetic
On Creating Things Aesthetic
pared-down, demystified overview of the mental operations involved with
creating things aesthetic, i.e., art, design, and the like. It is a
disarmingly clearheaded and unsentimental look at the creative process by an
eminent creator. The book's
photographs and design serve as an example of what the creative process, at its
most sophisticated, can yield.
