Abstract

The planned work of the designer should cover the whole of his activity in the drawing office:

  1. 1.

    His purely intellectually creative work, in other words the activity generally termed design and comprising the system of working discussed in more detail in the pages which follow.

  2. 2.

    The organizational measures adopted in the drawing office, such as the sequencing and distribution of design tasks so as to facilitate properly planned preparation of the work for the shops, combined with speedy completion of the order. This planning of the work cannot be carried out at college, since the conditions for it are lacking. An attentive beginner, however, will soon learn it in practice.
