Good Eye

by Jim Tolpin & George Walker

Quantity:

Traditionally, it was necessary for craftspeople to develop an eye for design while simultaneously honing their technical skills. In this fifth book in their Artisan Design Series, Tolpin and Walker examine historic furniture forms, showing how we can train our eyes to see the lessons these pieces have to offer us on proportion and space.


Ten chapters provide insight into the minds of pre-industrial artisans, imparting valuable lessons to help readers design their own furniture. The authors demonstrate how the proportional systems used in historic pieces, such as a 17th-century chest or a Shaker sewing table, can be used to create designs that suit any aesthetic.


With clear explanations and hundreds of line drawings, this book provides both knowledge and inspiration for modern woodworkers interested in designing and making their own furniture.


Printed on #60 natural paper. The pages are gathered into signatures, sewn together for durability, then backed with fiber tape. Hardcover, 8 1/2" × 11", 113 pages, 2024.
