Inhalt:
Drawing for Urban Design explores a wide range of ways to represent the city, from freehand sketching to sophisticated computer models. Architects and urban planners need to describe cities in the course of their work, be it through maps, diagrams, sketches, computer renderings, or models. This book provides a practical introduction to these techniques for students, while explaining the processes associated with describing and designing urban environments - it is an invaluable visual handbook for representing the contemporary city.
