This form kit is not a design you may find under the spotlight, but a tool assisting design work. The forms are purified from the languages, the trends, or the styles. They have no identities and represent nothing. They are silent but comprehend the features in a lot of design cases. 

 

The form kit includes various surfaces, transitions, edges, and features, in order to assist designers in design communication. In many occasions, design communication is unclear and ambiguous as people have different perception when describing a form, a shape or a style. The result might be lack of knowledge in design terminology, difference in backgrounds or translation in various culture. For example, if we depicted “a simple and purified design with sharp edges”, the user may pick up different forms from this kit according to different understanding on the same vocabularies. In addition, some curves or surfaces are difficult to describe in words. These forms are not fixed design but served as references for designers to quickly understand their clients or another designer through visual shapes. When the users (including designers and project clients) want to describe a form or a curve which envisioned in their mind, they can simply point out it on these forms without any sketching skills. The form kit enables more effective and efficient communication between designers and clients.

 

Moreover, this form kit also smoothes the communication through manufacturer. Designers may utilize these forms to communicate with technicians and engineers in order to provide appropriate solutions of materials and manufacturing processes. This kit comes with a guild card demonstrating manufacturing concerns which frequently appears during the communication phase on the forms. There is also some masking tapes for users to mark parting line.
