Drawing on her background as a teacher of geometry and designer for the theater, Fletcher (New York School of Interior Design) views geometry as a way of arranging spaces that define our relationship to the world. Exercises in this workbook for visual designers reflect her preference for use of the compass rather than abstract formulas and computations, and illustrate geometric techniques for composing spaces harmonically. The work includes layout plans of such spaces as stained glass windows of the Notre Dame Cathedral (Paris) and the Oriental Institute's garden courtyard at the U. of Chicago.
