Summary:
''Making Marks'' showcases the private sketchbooks of the world's most visually inventive architects, revealing just how much drawing by hand informs great contemporary architecture. 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.

Summary:
''Regards dessinés sur le monde'' est plus qu'un simple recueil de dessins, c'est un voyage. Bernard Gachet, architecte globe-trotter, nous emmène sur les traces des civilisations passées aux travers des vestiges rencontrés de par le monde au cours de ses différents voyages réalisés depuis 1976. Bernard Gachet est un voyageur passionné, il parcourt le monde à la manière des "amateurs" du XVIIIe siècle. Carnet et crayon à la main, il dessine et choisit pour nous ce que privilégie son oeil d'architecte : la diversité et la beauté des traces de l'histoire et des cultures. Comme pour mieux comprendre le monde. Le dessin se fait ici éloge de la lenteur et du passé, en plus d'être un fascinant moyen de connaissance et de découverte.

Summary:
How do you find out about historic buildings and places? A good place to start is with visual evidence. Original drawings, topographical views, surveys, maps, photographs, and other historic visual sources help to support an understanding of how a building or location appears the way it does today. Interpreting such material requires knowledge of historic design and mapping conventions, the place of the drawings in the construction process, the methods and techniques used to create engraved or topographical views, and the equipment and processes used in photography at particular times. The authors of this book explain the provenance, purpose, and terminology of a range of visual sources from the sixteenth to the twentieth century, and explore how they can help—or sometimes hinder—an understanding of the original form and subsequent changes to a building, site, or landscape.
