disappointing December 5, 2001 16 out of 18 found this review helpful
If you want to draw like Ching, get his other books, they are a lot less boring. This book shows only one style of drawing, and it uses imperial American architectural scales. Good drawing is not about copying, and other people can draw better, like Frank Llyod Wright or Franklin D. Israel. Its twenty five quid and won't change your life.
Good all round book August 12, 2001 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I'm a first year degree student and draftsman at work and found the section on perspectives and freehand sketching particularly good.My only gripe is that the book is an American book and as a result is all in inches and feet. It would have been much better if they had produced a metric version for publication in Great Britain. Apart from that, definitly worth having for any architecture student - fits nicely on the shelf with Chudley and Mitchells!!
essential for any architect or student November 2, 1998 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
A fabulous survey of the conventions of architectural drawing in an easily referenced, concise format. Adequately covers the basics of orthographic, paraline, perspective, and rendering techniques. Good for the first time student just learning, or the experienced architect looking for a brush up.
