Design and geometry With this solid introduction to the subject of parquet distortion, the editors fill a gap by tackling a topic that has a particular appeal in the age of digital design. 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. The book brings together scholarly articles by the most important authors in the field with archival material from Ulm. Juxtaposed with this are extensively 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.
