Abstract

What is the role of hand drawing play for architecture in a digital age, as drawing moves off the page and onto the screen? How might computer-generated drawings emulate the ambiguities and nuances of the hand?

Abstract

'Architecture through Drawing' examines how drawing - as both action and object - encapsulates complex ideas relating to culture, technology, space and the built environment. Bringing together an array of beautiful and rarely seen drawings dating from the sixteenth century to the present day, all representing different geographical locations, techniques, methodologies and purposes, the book defines a new field for the subject of the drawing in architecture. It reveals the motives for architectural drawing beyond the requirement to document the processes that underpin the realisation of the architectural object. This book asks, fundamentally, whether drawings can illuminate new interpretations of architectural experimentation. Examples range from initial sketches by architects to analytical and construction drawings, perspectives and schematics, collage and more complex presentations and paintings often carried out in association with others.

Abstract

Design drawing covers the traditional basics of drawing, including line, shape, tone and space. Different types of artistic conventions such as mutliview, paraline and perspective drawings are also lucidly explained. The final section, "Drawing from the Imagination", fuels the creative spirit to find its own direction. Throughout the book you'll find over a 1500 hand-rendered drawings and exercices wich reinforce the concepts and lessons of each chapter.

Abstract

The author provides a systematic analysis of those space-defining geometries that are relevant to solving design problems and understanding the ordered division of space. He develops this thesis from the point of view of the experimental mathematician - a term coined to describe one aspect of the work of Buckminster Fuller. By means of full-page illustrations, diagrams and charts, he presents those mathematical facts and formulae, many of them not previously published, which bear on the definition and understanding of space. The material, which can be used in models and projects, is accompanied by an explanatory text and precise numerical values. This book offers a fresh and imaginative insight into the area where mathematics and the arts meet. It can also be used as a practical tool by the architect, designer or scientist who has to deal with such problems as space defining, distribution patterns, space-filling properties, packing and stacking, economy grids and communication linkages.

Abstract

The two-dimensional drawing with plan layout, elevation, and section is a necessary prerequisite for all building. Perspectives help to give three-dimensional expression to the architect's ideas. In order to convey architecture and to build it, drawings at a reduced scale are mandatory, for the architect as much as for tradesmen and clients. This book recounts the historical development of architectural drawings and thus provides an insight into the fascinating world of this medium. It not only shows plain technical drawings but mainly focuses on impressive inventions of almost artistic quality that surprise again and again. It thus is a convincing appeal to constantly renew ways of drawing architecture and thereby to imagine future worlds.

Abstract

The book is a guide for students and teachers to understand the need for, the role of and the methods and techniques of freehand analytical sketching in architecture. The presentation focuses on drawing as an approach to and phase of architectural design. The conceptual goal of this approach is to use drawing not as illustration or depiction, but exploration. The first part of the book discusses underlying concepts of freehand sketching in design education and practice as a compliment to digital technologies. The main component is a series of chapters that constitute a typology of fundamental issues in architecture and urban design; for instance, issues of "facade" are illustrated with sketch diagrams that show how facades can be explored and sketched through a series of specific questions and step-by-step procedures. This book is especially timely in an age in which the false conflict between "traditional vs. digital" gives way to multiple design tools, including sketching.--

Abstract

All students who have a budding interest in architectural design will value this book for its solid foundational orientation and instruction.Learn to see and sketch with accuracy ; develop fundamental drawing and modelling skills ; master subjective representation and rules of perspective ; employ spatial strategies: rendering and diagramming. The Architectural Drawing Course introduces readers to architecture's visual language, showing them how to think spatially and getting them started in architectural drawing with a series of instructive tutorials. A series of work units covers virtually every aspect of architectural drawing.This book concludes with practical advice for anyone considering a career in architectural design, offering ideas on building a portfolio, getting advanced training, and continuing on a path to a professional career.
