Bridges traditional and contemporary methods of creating architectural design drawings and 3D models through digital tools and computational processes. Drawing from the Model: Fundamentals of Digital Drawing, 3D Modeling, and Visual Programming in Architectural Design presents architectural design students, educators, and professionals with a broad overview of traditional and contemporary architectural representation methods. The book offers insights into developments in computing in relation to architectural drawing and modeling, by addressing historical analog methods of architectural drawing based on descriptive geometry and projection, and transitioning to contemporary digital methods based on computational processes and emerging technologies. Drawing from the Model offers digital tools, techniques, and workflows for producing architectural design drawings (plans, sections, elevations, axonometrics, and perspectives), using contemporary 2D drawing and 3D modeling design software. Visual programming is introduced to address topics of parametric modeling, algorithmic design, computational simulations, physical computing, and robotics. The book focuses on digital design software used in higher education and industry, including Robert McNeel & Associates Rhinoceros® (Rhino 6 for Windows), Grasshopper®, Adobe Illustrator® CC, and Arduino, and features an appendix filled with 10 design drawing and 3D modeling exercises intended as educational and pedagogical examples for readers to practice and/or teach workflows that are addresses in the book. Bridges analog hand-drawing and digital design drawing techniques Provides comprehensive coverage of architectural representation, computing, computer-aided drafting, and 3D modeling tools, techniques, and workflows, for contemporary architectural design drawing aesthetics and graphics. Introduces topics of parametric modeling, algorithmic design, computational simulation, physical computing, and robotics through visual programming environments and processes. Features tutorial-based instruction using the latest versions of Rhinoceros® (Rhino 6 for Windows), Grasshopper®, Adobe Illustrator® CC, and Arduino.

From the basics of drawing from life, to drawing the human figure from memory, Figure Drawing without a Model is the perfect introduction to the technique of drawing accurate and evocative figures without a life model. Author Ron Tiner offers a course of instruction illustrated with his own work that is designed to encourage artists of all levels and abilities, including cartoonists and graphic artists. Starting with informal sketches and a brief introduction to anatomical structure, readers are guided through the process of bringing a figure to life on the page through lessons in figure movement, exploring how the body shows its age, expresses emotion and displays character. Perfect for all artists, from the beginner to the more experienced, the breadth of styles and depth of knowledge conveyed from a master of the craft makes it easy to learn the art of figure drawing.

Bridges the gap between traditional and contemporary methods of creating architectural design drawings and 3D models through the use of digital tools and computational processes This book provides readers with an overview of traditional and contemporary architectural representation methods and offers insight into significant developments in computing as they apply to architectural drawing and modeling. It offers readers a look into recent developments in technologies that have impacted architectural design and representation workflows, and focuses on digital design software used in higher education and industry, including Robert McNeel & Associates Rhinoceros® (Rhino 6 for Windows), Grasshopper®, and Adobe Illustrator® CC. The book covers fundamental methods for digital drawing, 3D modeling, and visual programming through descriptions, examples, and tutorial-based instructions specific to the production of digital design drawings and graphics. Drawing from the Model: Fundamentals of Digital Drawing, 3D Modeling, and Visual Programming in Architectural Design presents beginning architectural design students and professionals with a broad overview of drawing and modeling in architectural representation, by addressing historical analog methods based on descriptive geometry and projection and transitioning to contemporary digital methods based on computational processes and emerging technologies. The book focuses on digital tools, techniques, and workflows for the production of design drawings; plans, sections, elevations, axonometrics, and perspectives, utilizing contemporary, cutting-edge 2D drawing and 3D modeling, design software. Additionally, visual programming is introduced to address topics of parametric modeling, algorithmic design, computational simulations, physical computing, and robotics, as methods for exploring architectural design and experimental drawing processes. Sections cover Architectural Representation and Digital Technologies; The 3D Modeling Environment and Geometry; Architectural Design Drawings and Graphics; and Computational Design. It features an appendix filled with 10 design drawing and 3D modeling exercises intended as educational and pedagogical examples for readers to practice and/or teach workflows that are addressed in the book. Acts as an important bridge between analog hand-drawing and digital design drawing techniques, with examples of traditional and contemporary architectural design drawings Provides comprehensive coverage of architectural representation, computing, computer-aided drafting, and 3D modeling tools, techniques, and workflows, for contemporary architectural design drawing aesthetics and graphics Introduces topics of parametric modeling, algorithmic design, computational simulation, physical computing, and robotics through visual programming environments and processes Features tutorial-based instruction using the latest versions of Rhino 6 for Windows, Grasshopper®, Adobe Illustrator® CC, and Arduino Drawing from the Model will serve as an excellent resource for beginning architectural design students in higher education and as a helpful reference for professionals in practice, teaching readers beginning and intermediate digital representation methods for the production of architectural design drawings that reflect contemporary aesthetics and graphics. These drawings are generated using 3D modeling and parametric/algorithmic workflows to create linework that is enhanced with digital drawing and graphic design software. Additional workflows include the use of 3D modeling and visual programming environments to explore fundamental concepts of computational simulations, physical computing, and robotics and introductory methods for addressing these topics.

Combine traditional techniques with modern media for morecommunicative renderings Digital Drawing for Landscape Architecture: ContemporaryTechniques and Tools for Digital Representation in Site Design,Second Edition bridges the gap between traditional analog andnew digital tools by applying timeless concepts of representationto enhance design work in digital media. The book explores specifictechniques for creating landscape designs, including digitallyrendered plans, perspectives, and diagrams, and the updated secondedition offers expanded coverage of newer concepts and techniques.Readers will gain insight into the roles of different drawings,with a clear emphasis on presenting a solid understanding of howdiagram, plan, section, elevation, and perspective work together topresent a comprehensive design approach. Digital rendering is faster, more efficient, and more flexiblethan traditional rendering techniques, but the design principlesand elements involved are still grounded in hand-renderingtechniques. Digital Drawing for Landscape Architectureexploits both modalities to help designers create more beautiful,accurate, and communicative drawings in a professional studioenvironment. This second edition contains revised information onplan rendering techniques, camera matching workflow, and colorselection, along with brand new features, like: Time-based imagery and tools Workflow integration techniques Photoshop and Illustrator task automation Over 400 updated images, plus over 50 new examples ofaward-winning work The book takes a tutorial-based approach to digital rendering,allowing readers to start practicing immediately and get up tospeed quickly. Communication is a vital, but often overlookedcomponent of the design process, and designers rely upon theirdrawings to translate concepts from idea to plan. DigitalDrawing for Landscape Architecture provides the guidancelandscape designers need to create their most communicativerenderings yet.
