Conceptual Sketches in Architectural Design

Unfortunately, our knowledge has lost its natural quality. We suffer a lot to produce or educate a science, think hardly, and spend much energy while presence of thoughts may be seen relying on our innate power, being familiar with mind function, being tranquil and avoiding mental disturbances. What is important in realization of this kind of thought is to listen to the mind voice and draw perfectly and freely what is forced to draw. Conceptual sketch is a way to know mind and more coordinate with how it is used in creation of art works. I daresay that 80% of design is related to mind control capability and the rest is an opportunity provided by design tools and techniques (from pencil to computer) to imagine ideas and mental images. Thus, conceptual sketches (conceptual models and computerized structures made using this technique) may be called kind of "creative thinking" enlightening dim mind of human resulting from innovations and imperfections of educational systems, grants them self-confidence, and empowers artists creativity. Sketches of the book are not designed during design process of any special architectural project, rather they come of the architect's thought in a world of fantasy and imagination resulted in exploration of different ideas from form and space.
Architectural Drawing

An extensively updated new edition of a classic architectural text Today's most comprehensive compendium of architectural drawing types and methods, both hand drawn and computer generated, Architectural Drawing: A Visual Compendium of Types and Methods remains a one-of-a-kind visual reference and an outstanding source of guidance and inspiration for students and professionals at every level. The Third Edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect a wider range of techniques and styles than ever before, including: * 1,100 illustrations by today's most noted architects, including Tadao Ando, Rebecca Binder, Mario Botta, Lord Foster, Massimiliano Fuksas, Frank Gehry, Michael Graves, Zaha Hadid, Steven Holl, Ricardo Legorreta, Richard Meier, I. M. Pei, Cesar Pelli, Renzo Piano, Antoine Predock, Tod Williams and Billie Tsien, and Venturi Scott Brown * Over 250 new drawings * 30% new and revised material * A new, more user-friendly structure "This volume reveals how architects approach drawing as a process wherein ideas are given form. As a tool for teaching, these examples become important in students' understanding of the formal and technical aspects of design thought. In an age of digital technologies, this work emphasizes the intimate relationship that exists between the drawing and its maker, the process between paper, hand, and mind." -LaRaine Papa Montgomery, Professor of Architecture/Graphics Coordinator, Savannah College of Art and Design "A wonderful resource on design visualization and graphic communication that covers all aspects of drawing conventions and manual techniques of representation. Richly illustrated and professionally presented in a way that makes it accessible to beginners as well as advanced students, this book stands out as a core reference for courses on design graphics." -Dr. Samer Akkach, Senior Lecturer in Architecture and DesignThe University of Adelaide, South Australia "This book contains an abundance of some of the most inventive graphic presentations by world-class architects. As I browse through this book, the hundreds of pages of thought provoking images both relax and excite me, an experience that only a good read can bring. It illuminates the process of visual thinking behind some of the most creative minds. As the profession is becoming more and more constrained by economics and time, this book reminds us of how ideas in architecture began." -William W. P. Chan, AIA, Assistant Professor of Architecture, Morgan State University, Institute of Architecture and Planning
Basics Architecture 01: Representational Techniques

Basics Architecture 01- Representational Techniques by Lorraine Farrelly explores the concepts and techniques used to represent architecture. It describes a broad array of methodologies for developing architectural ideas, ranging from two- and three-dimensional conceptual sketches, through to the working drawings required for the construction of buildings, and offers a range of practical drawing methods, showing how to present and plan layouts, make conceptual sketches, work with scale, use collage and photomontage to create contemporary images, along with techniques to prepare and plan design portfolios. The book also deals with a variety of media, from those used in freehand sketching, through to cutting-edge computer modeling and drawing techniques. Using examples from leading international architects and designers along with more experimental student work, a broad range of interpretations, possibilities and applications are demonstrated. Students and practitioners will find this a useful and clear companion to a vital aspect of architectural design.
