Drawing Proper/Drawing Improper is a meditation on contemporary architectural drawing practice framed through 56 artifacts created by 28 architectural firms from around the globe. Each drawing replies to a simple prompt: How can architectural drawing be dutiful? How can it be mischievous? This open-ended question invited diverse responses, spanning the spectrum from practical to whimsical. By presenting this dichotomy--dutiful or mischievous--the book's drawings expose the diverse and often conflicting values embedded in the practice of representing architecture. Some adhere strictly to functional rigor, while others embody open-ended explorations with no fixed outcome. In this way, Drawing Proper/Drawing Improper expands the scope of architectural drawing, revealing the diverse motivations and approaches within the field. The collection is a testament to the diversity of thought and method that characterizes architectural practice today. Accompanied by descriptions of the works and a series of reflective essays and interludes by Anca Matyiku and Marc Swackhamer, editor Kevin Hirth brings varied drawing practices into conversation, offering a dynamic cross-section of contemporary architecture.
