Expressing ideas in the form of drawings and models is usually required in the early stages of studying: ”learning by doing“ is the only way for students to quickly develop a repertoire for their design work.However, there are important issues to consider between the phases of devising the spatial concept and recreating it in a two- or three-dimensional drawing or physical model: How to construct a perspective freehand drawing? What plan drawings are necessary to present my design? What scale should my model be and what materials should I use to construct it?Basics Architectural Presentation combines the highly successful single volumesTechnical Drawing, CAD, Modelbuilding, and Architectural Photography from the series BASICS with a yet to be published volume entitled Freehand Drawing. Step-by-step, it conveys possible ways to present architectural projects throughout the various project phases. In an informative and practical approach, the publication discusses the basics of architectural representation from freehand drawing, which is especially important in the design phase, to the plan drawing, model, and architecture photography.

Expressing ideas in the form of drawings and models is usually required in the early stages of studying: ”learning by doing“ is the only way for students to quickly develop a repertoire for their design work.However, there are important issues to consider between the phases of devising the spatial concept and recreating it in a two- or three-dimensional drawing or physical model: How to construct a perspective freehand drawing? What plan drawings are necessary to present my design? What scale should my model be and what materials should I use to construct it?Basics Architectural Presentation combines the highly successful single volumesTechnical Drawing, CAD, Modelbuilding, and Architectural Photography from the series BASICS with a yet to be published volume entitled Freehand Drawing.
