Through knot-manipulating, you can not only find the basic order and rule of operation for knot-forming, but also discard the original cognition to space formulization. In process of tying a knot, all the actions have been carried out among steps via the knot of a rope, which can turn out its complicated system into diagram. It also records the message and establishes rules for the purpose of realizing the space. In addition, it has been trying to develop the prototype of knot in order to set up the space formulation and space model by knot characteristic. Furthermore, a design tool via knotting has been extracted and gone with: (1) Theory build-up: Examine the space of knot with the topology; (2) Manipulation rules: Develop a prototype of knot cross with the topology by knot-manipulating, record its transformation and reflect it into the space. There are two ways to see if the knot can be the design tool. One is “an experiment of knotting”, which is to test the generality of the knot as a design tool; The other is “a manipulation of design”, which is to test the space transformation and forming for a knot. By means of preceding two-way manipulations, it is able to take control of the knot in production under space thinking and building of space rules. Meanwhile, it needs to succeed in the standard operating procedure of evaluation for a design tool of knotting. In conclusion, this study is to stress on the induction of prototype logic through knot-manipulating and the presentation of appearance in the knot space. The space characteristic of design tool for knotting includes a circulating smooth layout and a continuous interlaced space form, which have come out to further develop three models of space: (1) Icon model (2) rigid-state model (3) Dialogue model. Each model level with elements can be classified to the message, rule and test for the sake of building up the space centext of design tool and the system of knotting tool.
