"design matters"  ... george walker

"design matters" ... george walker

there's a lot to read about woodworking in the big old online world.  since i know from their comments that a lot of my readers are woodworkers, i think it only appropriate that i occasionally point out other worthwhile writers to ponder .. george walker is one whose musings i enjoy from time to time ... 'design matters' is his cleverly named and  nicely written contribution to the knowledge stream.  i encourage you to add it to your list.  i was particularly inspired by his recent post on 'learning to see', a subject i know i have commented on from time to time.  enjoy ...

Geroge Walker ... Design Matters

Geroge Walker ... Design Matters

Up to this point in my writing career, I have not spent a lot of time touting other bloggers. but, lately, as part of my mission of 'sharing information', I have been trying to reserve a little Sunday morning time for reading what other people find interesting enough to write about ... A couple of weeks ago I bumped into George Walker's blog, 'Design Matters', (a sentiment I certainly share), and it's a good one. Very professional, readable, and deep. Lots of information there. George's approach is centered on what he refers to as 'Traditional Design', how we should look at it ... what it means ... how to use it in your work ... all good stuff. He is also a contributor to Popular Woodworking Magazine and a frequent speaker on the woodworking lecture circuit. Enjoy ....
