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, The book Making It uses contemporary design as a vehicle to describe over 120 production processes. Each process is also evaluated in terms of sustainability and its effects on the environment.

Making It appeals to product, interior, 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.


Chris Lefteri is an accomplished designer and internationally recognised authority on materials and their application in design. He studied under Professor Daniel Weil at the Royal College of Art, London. Chris Lefteri Design Ltd has three offices in London, Seoul and Singapore, specialising in connecting materials with the design industry.
