裝飾設計原理：當代裝飾設計理論與紋飾創作應用Wedgwood、Tiffany&Co.、Minton 設計師19世紀最重要的設計名家 克里斯多夫‧德雷瑟具有現代視野、擁抱工業化，形隨機能的先鋒德雷瑟是19世紀最重要設計理論權威與實踐者，生於維多利亞時代，卻具有獨特的現代視野、擁抱工業各命的製程，意圖製造出大眾可以負擔的商品，外界稱他為人民的設計師。工業革命後的英國，人們以城市為生活中心，四處可見粗製濫造工業製品，因而一場反工業、反璞歸真的美術工藝運動應運而生。德雷瑟提出「真實、美感、力量」（TRUTH. BEAUTY. POWER）的設計理念，以自然秩序為依歸，創作出和諧、平靜、耐看、實用的作品。他為瓷器品牌瑋緻活（Wedgwood）、明頓（Minton）與第芬尼珠寶（Tiffany & Co.）等30餘間品牌提供設計，師承歐文‧瓊斯（Owen Jones）、經常與威廉‧莫理斯（William Morris）相提並論，其設計理念影響眾多美國建築師，包括提出 Form follow function 芝加哥學派的路易‧蘇利文，可說是「形隨機能」觀念的先鋒。 本書收整德雷瑟最重要的兩部裝飾設計著作：《裝飾設計原理》（Principles of Decorative）與 《設計研究》（Studies in Design），內容涵蓋德雷瑟的核心設計觀念、各地區民族的裝飾風格、紋飾設計原則、色彩學，涉及建築物、室內空間、家具、家飾、日常器具的設計和裝飾方法，並且在德雷瑟至今流傳的雋永作品中得到實踐，是現今設計界可以參照、有理有據、有歷史脈絡的設計方法。
