Design professionals of every discipline – architects, product and graphic designers – are confessing to certain difficulties in common: to transform their knowledge and understanding of the ecological, economic, technological and aesthetic parameters of an enduring contemporary design into the practice of their professions.
It is a sentiment echoed by decision-makers in the construction field and other industries.
The authors of Transfer present a collection of documentary illustrations and quotations which is both rigorous and stimulating in composition and structure. They have devised a method of making the critical factors of innovative design vividly immediate and usable in practice. transfer=convey: To transfer means to put across. This book offers its audience some approaches to a “grammar of ecology,” conceiving itself as a mean to an end.

建築家やプロダクト/グラフィックデザイナーなど、様々な業種のプロフェッショナルたちは、一様にある特定の困難を口にする。それは、環境的/経済的/技術的、そして永続的な現代のデザインの美的制約に対する彼らの知識や理解を、それぞれの分野で現実的な形に変換する事だ。
これは建築業界や他の産業分野で、意思決定をする人に共鳴する感情である。
本書は、著者が集めた構造や構成についての非常に正確で刺激的な図版や引用をまとめたものだ。transfer=convey、Transferには、「伝える」という意味が有る。本書は、その解決方法となりうる「環境的文法」へのアプローチを提案する。
