Architectural Delineation is a text realistically based on student examples, which is appropriate for any art/architecture class where hand drawing is emphasized. It would be particularly useful for any student interested in majoring in architecture or interior design. This text is a result of the authors never being completely satisfied with the various instructional books available over the 15 years they have taught architectural drawing. Their goal is to provide exercises that increase visual awareness, and develop drawing skills and confidence in each student who uses this book. Each project in Architectural Delineation is designed to give the student cumulative information while reviewing previously-acquired skills. The authors feel that the discipline of seeing (by way of drawing) is an end in itself. It makes the individual more intimately aware of the external world and the internal world of ideas. The first two chapters of this text provide a presentation of the course of study developed at Texas Tech University for a two-semester sequence in freehand drawing. The first semester activities are limited to black and white media. The second semester is focused on the use of color. Chapter three is essentially a portfolio of professional work. This section includes both black and white and full color examples of architectural illustration by significant architects, designers, and illustrators. Chapter four is devoted to advance projects by upper level students.

This book presents a range of graphic images used in the production of Australian architecture. It pictures perspective, axonometric and orthogonal images and each is examined for its specific aesthetic qualities and the techniques and materials used in the production of final artwork. To clarify the distinctive characteristics of the graphic images, each is accompanied by a statement about the design, written by the architect and, where available, photographs of the completed building. The introductory text questions how the selected drawings might be seen to characterise a visibility of cultural production with regard to the present formation of our architectural profession. This question opens two domains of analysis - firstly, the roles of the observer and artist/architect in relation to the currency of visual codes and secondly, the application to architectural production of visual codes from artistic media. These domains of analysis issue further debate on the necessity of architectural drawing to fulfil the representational role of making comprehensible projected built form.

Basics Architecture 01- Representational Techniques by Lorraine Farrelly explores the concepts and techniques used to represent architecture. It describes a broad array of methodologies for developing architectural ideas, ranging from two- and three-dimensional conceptual sketches, through to the working drawings required for the construction of buildings, and offers a range of practical drawing methods, showing how to present and plan layouts, make conceptual sketches, work with scale, use collage and photomontage to create contemporary images, along with techniques to prepare and plan design portfolios. The book also deals with a variety of media, from those used in freehand sketching, through to cutting-edge computer modeling and drawing techniques. Using examples from leading international architects and designers along with more experimental student work, a broad range of interpretations, possibilities and applications are demonstrated. Students and practitioners will find this a useful and clear companion to a vital aspect of architectural design.
