This book is dedicated to all those who love children and their
wonderful, often surprising, drawings. This means it addresses all
those interested in their devel oping capacity to produce "iconic"
signs: parents, teachers, child psychologists, artists, architects
(since building drawings are treated here), and semioticians at
large-to name but a few potential readers. Because of the broad
audience, I tried to keep scientific jargon to a minimum. Whenever
this was unavoidable, I tried to explain the terms in such a way
that even beginners in psychology could understand my arguments. I
received the first impulse to think about a book like this from the
Interna tional Year of the Child declared by the UN in 1979. In a
first phase of the project, I obtained drawings of the six
different building types treated in this book from more than 100
children aged 3-12 years in Turkey during a stay there as part of
the faculty of Architecture of the Karadeniz Technical University
in Trabzon under the auspices of the UN ESCO/UNDP program
TUR/75/012. My special thanks go to Dr. Erdem Aksoy, then president
of the university, and Dr. Ozgontil Aksoy, then dean of the faculty
of Architecture and Civil Engineering, for their encouragement to
carry out the project. I would also like to thank Dr. Kutzal
Oztlirk, Sevinc Erttirk, Ali Ozbilen, Hasan Saltik, together with
all the teachers in nursery and elementary schools in and around
Trabzon who helped to collect the drawings."
