This second edition is fully revised and updated and includes
new chapters on sustainability, history and archaeology, designing
through drawing and drawing in architectural practice. The book
introduces design and graphic techniques aimed to help designers
increase their understanding of buildings and places through
drawing. For many, the camera has replaced the sketchbook, but here
the author argues that freehand drawing as a means of analyzing and
understanding buildings develops visual sensitivity and awareness
of design.
By combining design theory with practical lessons in drawing,
Understanding Architecture Through Drawing encourages the use of
the sketchbook as a creative and critical tool. The book is highly
illustrated and is an essential manual on freehand drawing
techniques for students of architecture, landscape architecture,
town and country planning and urban design.
