Karl Gerstner’s work is a milestone in the history of design. Designing Programmes is one of his most important works: in four essays, the author provides a basic introduction to his design methodology and suggests a model for design in the early days of the computer era. The book is especially topical and exciting in the context of current developments in computational design. With many examples from the worlds of graphic and product design, music, architecture, and art,it inspires the reader to seize on the material, develop it further, and integrate it into his or her own work.

Karl Gerstnerの仕事は、デザイン史に置いて重要な位置を占める。プログラムデザインはGerstnerの主要な仕事であるが、本書では、4つのエッセイとコンピュータ時代初期のデザインモデルを通して、彼のデザイン方法論の基本を紹介する。世界のグラフィック、プロダクトデザイン、音楽、建築、アートの事例を用いて読者にインスピレーションを提供する。
