Making Marks follows up the highly successful Architects'
Sketchbooks, which presented, for the first time, the rich breadth
of sketches being created by contemporary architects following the
digital revolution. Taking a post-digital perspective, the sixty
renowned architects whose work is collected here show how drawing
and new forms of manual presentation have been refined since the
reawakening of this basic technique. Notepads, stacks of paper,
pencils and fine-point pens are as present in the architect's
studio as phalanxes of screens. Revealing why and how hand-drawing
still matters, this global survey presents the freehand drawings,
vibrant watercolours and abstract impressions of rising talents and
well-known names, including Jun Igarashi and Brian MacKay-Lyons.
Will Jones's introduction reviews the importance of the physical
sketch and its vital part in the architect's creative process.
Spanning diverse approaches, styles and physical forms,
,i>Making Marks is not merely a compendium of the preoccupations
and stylistics of current practice, but a rich and varied insight
into architectural creativity.
