Memory: remembering what we know. 1. Aesthetics: enjoy the ride. Truth and beauty : Beauty is as beauty does -- Intuition and creativity -- Synchronicity -- Wabi-sabi and grunge -- Emptiness and simplicity : Emptiness as a philosophical and visual design application -- Putting it into practice -- 2. Efficiency: go with the flow. The economics of nature : Value-driven design ; Design's purpose -- Problem solving: Different strokes with effective results : Creative ideas used skillfully -- Creatives on the creative process -- Putting it into practice -- 3. Nature's ethics: everyone's business. Natural guidelines for ethical design : 12 design principles from nature -- Abundance and limits : Information design: discerning and distilling beautifully -- Intention and invention -- Mutation : An international design response to a manmade disaster ; Street galleries -- Ethics in education: rethinking how and what we teach : School of visual arts/New York City ; Carnegie Mellon University/Pittsburgh -- Upcycled design: applying nature's principles to personal design : The common denominator between aesthetics, efficiency, and ethics -- 000437499 5050_ $$aSection 2. Matter: Understand and create. 4. Patterns: nature's dynamics. Energy visualized : What is pattern? ; How natural patterns are relevant to design ; Capturing the energy of your design ; Transforming energy as a design -- The patterns : Patterns of movement ; Patterns of regeneration and connectivity ; Patterns that stack and pack -- A sounding board for visuals -- Putting it into practice -- 5. Shapes: nature's vocabulary. Shape-speak : Defining extraordinariness with numbers ; Shapes as truths ; A universe of freedoms ; Human translations of shape -- "In form" yourself by understanding shapes : The circle ; Intersecting lines ; The triangle ; The square ; The spiral -- Putting it into practice -- 6. The elements: nature's sensuality. Color your world : Light creates color ; Color form ; The noncolor colors ; The changing ways of color ; A natural palette -- Using nature's elements in design : Nature shares genius ; The classical elements -- Putting it into practice -- 000437499 5050_ $$aSection 3. Motion: the experience enhanced. 7. Structure: building beauty. Structural flow : Structural forms ; The state of flow -- Design's structural vocabulary : Elements ; Technique and quality ; Process and method ; Principles -- 1+1=3; the Gestalt principles : Figure/ground ; Closure or completion ; Continuance ; Similarity ; Proximity -- 8. Symmetry: a balancing act in two or more parts. Three basic symmetries : Translation symmetry ; Reflection symmetry ; Rotation symmetry -- Tessellations -- Asymmetry -- Putting it into practice -- 9. Messaging: a meaningful medium. The how and why of meaning : Symbols and the natural state ; Symbols and the altered state ; The symbolic metaphor in design -- Scaling across time and space : Designs that scale: spanning culture, trend, and time -- The hidden relationship : The hidden, seen. 000437499 650_0 $$aDesign. 000437499 650_0 $$aRepetitive patterns (Decorative arts) 000437499 650_0 $$aNature in art. 000437499 85200 $$bgen$$hNC703$$i.M236$$i2012 000437499 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:437499$$pGLOBAL_SET 000437499 980__ $$aBIB 000437499 980__ $$aBOOK
