This course is rooted in three propositions: Drawing is as much a way of seeing as it is a means of representation; drawing is not bound to digital versus analog categorizations; and drawing remains the primary vehicle to record, communicate, and create architecture. The class reviews the “Top Twenty Great Architectural Drawings” as a series of case studies linked to a film project on the drawing process. It attempts drawings of one line and drawings of 1,000 lines in the same span of time. Participants draw what they see, what they cannot see, what they want, and what they wish we could achieve. The word “rendering” has no place in this seminar.
