Craftsmanship and Industrial Design - Library Binding

by Ezra E. Knopp (Author)

For centuries, craftspeople have endeavored to fill the world with helpful objects--from tea sets to horse saddles to mailboxes. The objects are useful, but craftspeople also took pride in making the objects pleasing to look at. This concept has remained relevant since the Industrial Revolution changed how products were created. Now, industrial design is a field of manufacturing that aims to mass-produce useful and aesthetically pleasing products that cater to a positive user experience.
