Summary:

What role does drawing play in architectural education? How is drawing used as an instrument for communication, investigation, and representation in architecture and the construction industry? This book assembles contributions to the 2021 edition of the Lucerne Talks, the biennial Symposium on Pedagogy in Architecture at HSLU⁰́₉s School of Engineering and Architecture in Lucerne. Drawing in Architecture Education and Research offers a closer look at the importance of drawing culture in the curricula of Swiss schools of architecture and in the practice of architecture firms. Conceived as a compendium and reference book for students, teachers, and practitioners alike, this book explores the potential of drawing as a universal tool for communication and understanding among different societies, language groups, and professional communities. It considers drawing in its dual function as an object and a method for theory and practice in architecture, and features strategies for a future transdisciplinary language of drawing that enables narrations and representations of new spatial concepts.

Contents:

Drawing is intention

Drawing is communication

Drawing is pedagogy

Drawing is representation

Drawing is research.

Notes:

"How can drawing continue to be used as a central design tool in communication, research, and representation in the future? This question was discussed at the fourth Lucerne Talks Symposium for architectural educators, "Drawing in Architecture Education and Research," primarily among representatives from Swiss architecture schools, along with internatonal academics and practitioners."--Preface.
