Beschreibung
Graphic Design for Architects. is a comprehensive handbook of visual communication techniques for architects and designers, covering every scale of graphic production-from the portfolio and resume to competition boards, presentations, books, diagrams, data visualizations, maps, signage systems, and supergraphics. This book combines and expands on information typically found in graphic design and information design, and architectural graphics books. This second edition is fully updated and redesigned for contemporary practice. All examples have been redrawn to reflect the current state of digital tools, expanded representational methods, and the evolving visual culture of architectural communication. The core argument of the book remains: that graphic design is not a finishing touch applied to architectural work, but a constitutive part of how architects think, argue, and communicate. From the earliest diagram to the final competition board, architecture is produced and transmitted through graphic means. Each chapter is titled and organized by common architectural modes of communication and production. The chapters speak to architects by directly addressing projects and topics relevant to their work, while the information inside each chapter presents graphic design methods to achieve the architects' work. In this way, readers don't have to search through graphic design books to figure out what's relevant to them-this book provides a complete reference of graphic techniques and methods most useful to architects in getting their work done.
