  • The Computer's Role in Sketch Design: a Transparent Sketching
    The Computer’s Role in Sketch Design: A Transparent Sketching Medium Michael Trinder The Martin Centre for Architectural and Urban Studies, University of Cambridge Department of Architecture Key words: sketching, sketch design, user-interface, transparency, immersion, computer- aided design Abstract: Starting from an analysis of the current unsuitability of computers for sketching, three key requirements are identified, in particular the notion that re-drawing or over-drawing are more important than editing and tweaking. These requirements are encapsulated in the broad concept of Transparency, understood both literally and metaphorically. Two experiments in implementing aspects of Transparency are described. One subverts the Macintosh window manager to provide windows with variable transparency, so that tracing between applications becomes a practical possibility. The other implements a graphical interface that requires no on-screen palettes or sliders to control it, allowing uninterrupted concentration on the design in hand. User tests show that the tool can be learnt quickly, is engaging to use, and most importantly, has character. 1. INTRODUCTION Computers are being used by architects almost exclusively for the later stages of design: one UK practice has been quoted as using CAAD for upwards of 90% of their issued drawings while early presentation work and sketches are made with pencil and paper. Under the temporal, financial and aesthetic pressures of the design office any tool will be used only for tasks that designers perceive are within its capability. Whether their current perception is based in prejudice, preference or past experience, designers avoid using computers for sketching. The software currently available for sketch design is plainly not working.

  • Abstract - Sketch Diagramming – a Contemporary Approach to Architectural Drawing
    Anna Katrine Hougaard - The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts (KADK), School of Architecture - Philip de Langes Allé 10 - DK - 1435 Copenhagen K Mail: [email protected] Abstract - Sketch Diagramming – a contemporary approach to architectural drawing I would like to contribute a series of drawings for the exhibition and/or a paper for the group session discussions. In my Ph.D. project I approach architectural drawing as a notational system with the main capacity of orchestrating things and thoughts rather than depicting them. Drawing’s oper- ational capacity as a notational system (usually translating between drawing and building) operates both through iconic likeness, indexical impact and symbolic specification1. Archi- tectural drawing employs both digital and analogue notational systems2 and can be con- ducted with hand, manually by software, or by writing algorithms that produce drawings. Here I will elaborate the notion of sketch diagramming. Sketch indicates a loose, searching and developing process, and diagram indicates more rigor; maybe even a set of rules or a logic of reasoning. Nevertheless, diagrams can be both graphical - amounting in graphical works or paintings3 - as well as digital4. Sketch diagramming in the creative process can be thought of as a generative drawing game where rules can be employed, changed or invented as one draws, unspecific of drawing tool. When the rule-set of a sketch diagram becomes clear, it starts being a digital diagram and stops being a sketch diagram. Architectural drawing as sketch diagramming is an intermediary and responsive link which can be used to direct and negotiate a span from graphical intuitions to strict rules towards basically any chosen situation.

    REVOLUTIONS IN PARALLEL: THE RISE AND FALL OF DRAWING IN ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN by Kristina M. Luce A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Architecture) in The University of Michigan 2009 Doctoral Committee: Professor Daniel Alan Herwitz, Co-Chair Associate Professor Malcolm McCullough, Co-Chair Professor Celeste A. Brusati Associate Professor Lydia M. Soo © Kristina M. Luce ____________________________ 2009 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The dissertation is more of a collaborative effort then an individual one. I am certainly responsible for the words on these pages, and I am, of course, solely responsible for any errors, but the thinking I cannot claim as mine alone. In this brief moment when one can acknowledge the contributions so generously provided by others, I find myself overwhelmed by the size of my indebtedness and by my gratitude for all scholars who brave criticism, and even ridicule, to share their thinking. One simply cannot make a contribution to any field without the first being inspired by the work that has come before, and the works of James Ackerman, James Elkins, Hans Belting, Mario Carpo, Wolfgang Lefèvre, Herbert Simon and John Harwood, among many others, were of enormous help in forming my own thoughts. More personally, this dissertation would not have the shape it does today had Greg Lynn, Neil Thelen, Evan Douglis and Richard Sarrach not given generously of their time, energy and expertise to share their thinking with me through a series of interviews. In some cases their words have found a place within my own, but they all have helped shape my understanding of the current state of design and practice within architecture.

  • Modern Architectural Drawing Is Interesting, Photography Is Beautiful, the Building Is Just an Unfortunate but Necessary Step in Between
    Modern architectural drawing is interesting, photography is beautiful, the building is just an unfortunate but necessary step in between. H. S. Goodhart-Rendel, 1937 The object of the wall seen here is to block off the view to the north and east, partly to the south, and to the west; for the ever-present and overpowering scenery on all sides has a tiring effect in the long run. Have you noticed that under such conditions one no longer "sees"? To lend significance to the scenery one has to restrict and give it proportion; the view must be blocked by walls that are only pierced at certain strategic points and there permit an unhindered view. Le Corbusier When one travels and works with visual things--architecture, painting, or sculpture--one uses one's eyes and draws, so as to fix deep down in one's experience what is seen. Once the impression has been recorded by the pencil, it stays for good--entered, registered, inscribed. The camera is a tool for idlers, who use a machine to do their seeing for them. Le Corbusier So much of what we consider knowledge involves being able to state something in words. But there is another level at which things impact us in a visual way that we really can't articulate a response to. Jerry Uelsmann Architectural magazines, with their graphic and photographic artillery, transform architecture into an article of consumption, making it circulate around the world as if it had suddenly lost mass and volume, and in this way they also consume it.

  • Architectural Drawing and Diagrams
    ARCHITECTURAL DRAWINGS AND DIAGRAMS Drawing Architectural drawing, diagramming, designing or mapping are different terms to describe the negotiation that takes place in the architectural developing process between the world of ideas and the world of matter. This process of negotiation can take place with or without a defined aim in research-practice or in building-practise. The subject of my Ph.D.-thesis is architectural drawing, and some of the properties that I connect under the title 'diagram' in this paper, could as well be titled designing, mapping or simply architectural drawing. What I basically mean by drawing is the action and interaction that takes place in the negotiating situation between ideas and matter, whether done by hand or with the computer. But here I will try to distinguish the diagram from the terms drawing and designing and propose the diagram as a method in research-by-design. Research The known research definitions from the humanities and science are not always suitable for architectural-practise-based research. Research in science and the humanities is strongly defined by having a method that can be accounted for, which makes it possible to credit a work as research. The inventive developing process that takes place in practise-based architectural work, works equivalent to a method in science and humanities, pushing the process forward, but cannot be accounted for in advance and in a transparent and objective way. Such a process has other aims than in science and humanities, namely the production of 'something new'. Without trying to define the borders of architecture, my definition includes that it is practise-based and that it deals with some kind of creation or invention in a broad sense and that the inventions manifest themselves in a sensory way.

  • 1 Fabrication of Architectural Drawings
    FABRICATION OF ARCHITECTURAL DRAWINGS Lois Olcott Price Why, one might ask, does fabrication matter? Why is it important to identify the paper, media and technique the architect used? What can it tell us? Isn’t the image enough?? Clearly, if you are a conservator you need to understand these issues to treat the material safely and effectively, but how can this information help an architectural historian, curator or archivist? This fabrication information may tell the architectural historian or curator a great deal about the architect, his or her training and practice and where a particular drawing falls in the context of the design process. In addition, by understanding how fabrication changed over time, a significant amount of information about the development of the profession and the role of drawings can be gleaned. The archivist may also find that a knowledge of fabrication helps make sense of a disordered collection and the work flow it represents. In addition, some materials and processes are unstable or require special storage considerations. Preservation of the collection requires accurate identification of these materials. So, my goal this morning is to take a systematic look at supports, media and drafting techniques and begin to explore some of the inferences that can be drawn from this. Early American architectural drawings and their European antecedents were fabricated using traditional drafting materials – ink, graphite and watercolor on a gelatin sized writing paper. Between 1800 and the mid-twentieth century, revolutionary changes in materials and copying techniques took place. In an effort to understand and document these changes, a thorough survey of trade catalogs, architectural and drafting manuals and representative drawings and prints was undertaken.
