Theatrical Design: An Introduction is a guide for designers, creatives, and artists to create a design idea for a project and then audio/visually interpret and communicate that idea.

Emphasizing story analysis, creation, and interpretation specifically for designers and artists, the narrative describes a method to release meaning and design inspiration from story. After interpretation, the artistic elements and principles of designβ€”the skills necessary to create the designβ€”are laid out in clear terms. Concepts are illustrated with examples from theatre, film, art, architecture, and fashion that explore professional and historic use of conceptualisation and metaphor. Theatrical Design: An Introduction imparts the tools all designers, in all pursuits, need to innovate off the page.

A textbook suitable for Art, Architecture, Exhibitions, Interior Spaces, Culinary Presentation, Design, Film, and Theatre university courses, general readers and hobbyists will also find the methodology can be applied to any creative pursuits.
