'大多數的擺設都不太引人注意，但有些卻能讓你停下腳步。' 最初於2003年出版，Leonard Koren 備受追捧的《擺設之道：物品擺放的修辭學》運用了修辭學的語言，將視覺擺設描繪為一種「溝通行為：一種類似語言的審美表達形式」。
Koren 的深刻思考進一步濃縮為八項修辭原則，並搭配藝術家 Nathalie Du Pasquier 的23幅獨特畫作，為本書增添視覺詮釋。以平易近人的語調，《擺設之道》提供了一套易於理解的策略，可用於分析任何擺設。
應廣大讀者要求，這本《擺設之道》新版本以更寬敞的版面呈現 Du Pasquier 的藝術作品，以慶祝 Koren 穿越設計哲學核心的視覺之旅。《擺設之道》不僅是一本廣受歡迎的設計書籍；它更是一部里程碑式的文本，一份關於美學之美的實用宣言，旨在照亮並拓展我們理解與擺設世界的方式。
I was expecting a dry design manual, but Koren’s prose feels almost philosophical, and the 2003 original text still reads fresh today. The way he frames placement as rhetoric made me rethink every shelf and tabletop I own.
The way Koren breaks down why certain arrangements feel “right” versus merely tolerable is genuinely eye-opening—I caught myself rearranging my bookshelf halfway through chapter three. Short read, but it’s the kind of thinking that sticks with you long after you put it down.
I’d read about this 2003 edition being hard to find, so I was glad to finally get my hands on it—Koren’s take on why some shelf arrangements feel “right” is genuinely thought-provoking. The prose is dense but rewarding, and it’s made me rethink every tabletop I own.
