Summary:
This catalogue is dedicated to works on paper by the German Romantic artist (1774-1840) and offers a revealing perspective on the function of drawing in his creative process while also making apparent the substantive beauty of his works. Chosen from among major European museums and private collections - most of which have rarely been exhibited - these works of delicate beauty, meticulously rendered en plein air, were subsequently utilized by the artist as components of a modern system of pictorial architecture with which he constructed, far from nature - in his studio - the sublime landscapes that have made him the most celebrated painter of German Romanticism.

Summary:
Immediate and constructive, the physicality of hand drawing, upon which representation formats are based, is a necessary skill needed to communicate ideas in the field of architectural design. Drawing for Architects provides a technique-based, progression of drawing types and instructions teaching core drawing principles needed to connect drawing with architectural design. Architect and author Julia McMorrough outlines issues around each of the types of drawing, showing that the conversations of plan, section, elevation, axonometric, and perspective each have a relation to the kind of design information that drawing makes possible to express. Drawing for Architects explains both the technical and disciplinary importance of drawing and how to enable design creativity and application through its practiced use.

Summary:
Enseignant dans une école d’architecture, Jean-Louis Brahem a choisi de capter la curiosité et l’intérêt de ses élèves en traitant de cas concrets vécus par des personnages réels. Pour comprendre les sciences de la représentation – comment se représentent le sol, les édifices et les objets –, l’auteur a choisi de leur parler d’Antonin Terminal, fils d’un cheminot et dont la mère tient l’Hôtel Restaurant de la Gare, dans un petit village de Lorraine, dans les années qui précèdent la Première Guerre mondiale.
