Concepts from architects' minds evolve through sketches and as a
mode of transference are conveyed to the finished building. This
book compares qualities of sketches to reveal unique approaches to
the instruments of thinking in which all architects engage. It
provides new insight into the relationship between architectural
sketches and the process of creative manipulation. Sketches
comprise a thinking mechanism, and through the qualities of
ambiguity, quickness and change, they initiate a dialogue for
architects. As a medium to facilitate communication, recording,
discovery and evaluation, their pertinence lies in their ability to
exhibit both the precise and the imprecise. Exploring four related
theoretical approaches, play, memory-imagination-fantasy,
caricature and the grotesque, the book shows how imprecision
stimulates imagination to conceive new forms in the dialogue of
architectural sketches.
