Re: Call for Submissions: Get design help from Fine Woodworking and Hank Gilpin

My assumption is that Hank is regarded as a good designer because he has studied principles of 2 and 3d design and then implemented these fundamentals into his work. It is one thing to be able to build something and build it well, it is another thing to have a good eye for aesthetics. oftentimes one person does not do both of them well, If you are yearning to learn principles of design (applying to furniture, drawing, illustration, painting, sculpture, architecture, whatever it is universal) pick up a copy of a book called "Launching the Imagination" .
I teach 2d and 3d design at the college level, and this is one of the texts that we use.
