Drawing Parallels

Knowledge Production in Axonometric, Isometric and Oblique Drawings

Beschreibung

Drawing Parallels expands our understanding of the workings of architects by looking at their work from a different perspective. Lucas argues that by retracing the marks made by architects, we can begin to engage more directly with their practice as it is only by redrawing the work that aspects of it are revealed.
