Features: This book is based on the fundamental knowledge of building material product design and systematically discusses the shaping design, appearance design, forming processes, and mold design of building materials. The book is divided into three parts. The first part is the basic theory of building material product design, introducing the essential theoretical knowledge that designers must possess from the aspects of morphology, color theory, and aesthetics. It provides guidance for improving designers' aesthetic qualities and design conceptualization abilities. The second part focuses on the shaping and appearance design of building materials, starting from the theory and methods of building material product design, discussing the geometric shapes and surface decoration methods of building materials. On this basis, it elaborates on the general shaping design conceptualization process and theory/methods of common building materials. The third part is the forming processes and mold design of building materials, which is a necessary means for transforming product design into finished products and is also a key research area of this book. This book can serve as a textbook for students majoring in building materials, a reference book for technicians and management personnel in the building materials and construction industries, an introductory guide for beginners in building material design, and a reference book for building material product designers to broaden their perspectives.
