Third Edition
A product can be manufactured in many ways, but most designers know a handful of techniques only. With specially commissioned diagrams, case studies and photographs of the manufacturing process, Making It uses contemporary design as a vehicle to describe production processes. This new edition evaluates each process in terms of sustainability and its effects on the environment.
Making It appeals to product designers and interior designers, furniture and graphic designers who need access to a range of production methods, as well as to all students of design. The expanded edition includes six new processes and a new section on joining.
PLEASE NOTE: This book is a NON-MINT item. NON-MINT books are new but are either ex-display copies or warehouse marked - minor cosmetic imperfections such as scuffs, marks, or minor dents to the covers.

Seller very prompt to respond to email and to rectify an error I made during online purchase.
Excellent turnaround time from placing order to receiving books. Recipients delighted with their books, cannot keep them away from website and there's a real danger they'll be buying more books from this fantastic and different selection. Very pleased and satisfied overall with the transaction
Practical, useful lessons that are easy to implement and hold lots of drawing techniques to build on.
Good, affordable selection and easy to use website, the book arrived promptly and was just as described.
Beyond my expectations, beautifully produced book in every way including the linen cover. Great design, great photography by a highly talented photographer. I love every page.
Started reading as soon unwrapped👍
Great choices and great service. The book arrived early!!!
I brought alot of great books from you very interesting by alot of great artists !
As ever, great service from this retailer. Very happy with this and all other purchases.
Just what i wanted
A wonderful, comprehensive survey of the period. A top quality book.
As a type designer, I found the Stenciletter: Dotted Journal With 4 Stencils surprisingly useful. The dotted grid gives enough structure for sketching letterforms while still feeling open and flexible, and the stencils are great for quickly testing modular shapes, spacing, and compositions.
What I appreciated most was how it encourages experimentation without everything needing to feel overly polished straight away. It works well for rough type concepts, pattern ideas, and even early grid systems. The quality of the paper and layout also make it enjoyable to use as an everyday design notebook rather than just a novelty item.
A really thoughtful tool for anyone interested in typography, lettering, or structured visual experimentation.
Excellent outlet for lots of books I’m interested in. Fast despatch, no-nonsense - and Guy is obviously great at running it. A nice new twist on what used to be called the remainders market. Bravo!
I stumbled upon Books About Art by complete happenstance and found three books that immediately found their way into my basket. Guy’s customer service was tremendous! There was a small hiccup with DHL’s delivery and Guy immediately rectified the hiccup without me ever having to contact DHL. I’m counting the days until my next paycheque and my next purchase. Absolutely stellar service.
Great selection of design books at a great price! Super fast delivery too.. will be shopping here again very soon!
Everything arrived in perfect condition & quickly
