Design Drawing by William Kirby Lockard
An essential reference that clarifies the role of drawing in the design process. A text that has been tested in architectural studio courses over twenty-five years and two editions, Design Drawing establishes the theoretical basis for differentiating design drawing from art or drafting in its uses, techniques, and attitudes. It relates drawing to experience, context, and the design process rather than media and form. A tool for students and professionals, the book emphasizes the step-by-step depiction of reality through perspective, shadow-casting, and entourage.
"Design Drawing explains what communicating designers do all the time: They draw to realize a thing that doesn't yet exist. . . the lessons of light, shade, tone, value, texture, and so on are delightful, simple and clearly demonstrated. Perspective drawing is especially well presented and demystified." -- Landscape Architecture
