After studying logos and the communication process, Diethelm focus on graphic design element use outside the common use. From architectural murals to scientific computer visualization, data graphics or road signs but mostly how designers can think shapes in a new graphic [Swiss] way.
”…there has so far been no general survey with examples of practical work. Our intention is to show the activity of visualization, often involving extreme contrasts, within a wider framework. This is followed by notes on technologically-determined developments, with indications of the limits to the possibilities of visualization.” Text from front lap.
Creative tendencies in graphic design, fine art, technology and information techniques. “Seeing, viewing, shaping – Life means change, conversion and transformation. Visualization makes it possible to grasp the idea of transformation. The extent and speed of change in a man-made environment are to be seen in urban development and also in the developed landscape, ever more subjected to the needs of traffic, building and industrialisation.” From Arkive.
