Architect's Drawings (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The sketch is a window into the architects mind. As creative designers themselves, architects are interested in how other architects, particularly successful ones, think and draw and approach their work. Historically designers have sought inspiration for their own work through an insight into the minds and workings of people they often regard as geniuses. This collection of sketches aims to provide this insight. Here for the first time, a wide range of world famous architects' sketches from classical civilization to the present day can be seen in a single volume. The sketches have been selected to represent the concepts or philosophies of the key movements in order to develop an overall picture of the role of the sketch in the development of the history of architecture. The book illustrates the work of designers as diverse as Andrea Palladio, Erich Mendelsohn, Sir Edwin Lutyens, Gianlorenzo Bernini, Le Corbusier, Michelangelo, Alvar Alto, Sir John Soane, Francesco Borromini, Carlo Scarpa, Aldo Rossi, Yves Tanguay, Mayumi Miyawaki and Nicholas Hawksmoor to name but a few. Listed chronologically each sketch will be accompanied by a text that provides many details about the sketch and its creator.
