Résumé:

Eleven Exercises in the Art of Architectural Drawing.
This book offers eleven servings of "slow food" for the architectural imagination as opposed to the tasteless "fast food" that dominates many drawing tables or digital tablets. The implementation of "fast drawing" has generated the present graphic obesity and indigestive architecture, thus the eleven slow exercises presented in the book aim to make the facture of architecture a much leaner and digestible process. --Organized around eleven exercises, this book does not emphasize speed, nor incorporate many timesaving tricks typical of drawing books, but rather proposes a slow, meditative process for construing drawings and for drawing constructing thoughts. Detailing the critical nature and crucial role of architectural drawings, this book is a manual which is essentially not a manual; it is an elucidation of an elegant manner for practising architecture. The book identifies the inauguration of architectural theory within the craftsmanship of architectural drawings and emphasises a non-division between the mind and the hand in the facture of drawings. --Highly illustrated throughout, with the author's own original drawings, this book is an indispensable reference text and an effective textbook for students seeking to advance their appreciation of the nature and exercise of architectural drawings. --Book Jacket.
