Design models are an integral part of the design process, as prototypes and providers of ideas for those products that are later launched on the market as serial and mass goods. However, working with models is an interdisciplinary undertaking: The book reflects the design model as the basis for future concepts, as a collector's item in a museum and in its actual function as a planning and work tool for designers and model builders.

Text in English and German.
