The substance of this volume originally formed a series of lectures addressed to the students of the Manchester Municipal School of Art during the author's tenure as director of design at that institution. The book traces the fundamental connection and essential unity of the arts in design, touching on subjects such as color, pattern, materials, symbolism, and many more. Hard to find; this is the first time we've been able to offer this title.
