Architects' Drawings
"Here for the first time, a wide range of world famous architects' sketches from the Renaissance to the present day can be seen in a single volume. The sketches have been selected to represent the concepts or philosophies of the key movements in architecture in order to develop an overall picture of the role of the sketch in the development of architecture. The book illustrates the work of designers as diverse as Andrea Palladio, Erich Mendelsohn, Sir Edwin Lutyens, Gianlorenzo Bernini, Le Corbusier, Michelangelo, Alvar Aalto, Sir John Soane, Francesco Borromini, Walter Gropius, and contemporary architects Tadao Ando, Zaha Hadid and Frank Gehry to name but a few. Each chronologically placed sketch is accompanied by text providing details about the architect's life, a look at the sketch in context, and the connection to specific buildings where appropriate. Style, media and meaning are also discussed, developing an explanation of the architect's thinking and intentions".--BOOKJACKET.

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.
