- Teaching to See - There’s a difference between looking and seeing. Teaching to See explores the work of designer and educator Inge Druckrey.
Way back in time - about 1968 - when I was at college we were taught to look at a new object every day. Objects like: how downpipes are connected to gutters, drain covers, telephone boxes(!), chimney pots, lamp posts, etc. Unless you can 'look' and decipher what you see, you can't draw, which is quite useful for artists and designers.
