Sketching: the Basics, Hardback Book

Sketching: the Basics Hardback

Hardback

Description

This book explains the basic sketching techniques and decisions more in depth and provides much more step-by-step example drawings, which makes it even more suitable for students and professionals who want to become better sketchers. Sketching the Basics can be seen as the prequel to Sketching as it is more targeted at the novice designer.

The Basics explains the essential techniques and effects more in detail, taking the reader by the hand and guiding him step by step through all the various aspects of drawing that novice designers come up against.

Sketching the Basics starts with the white sheet of paper or the empty screen and explains the rudiments of learning to draw both clearly and comprehensively, using step by step illustrations, examples and strategies.

You will learn to use and master the different techniques and also how to apply sketches in the design process.

Internationally leading Designers from various cultures around the world contributed Designer Showcases to illustrate the sketching theory.

They contributed series of sketches that reflect the process of the design, from thumbnail to final drawing.

Drawings that have proven to be important in the decision-makingThe authors believe in active observation and participation by the student.

During the drawing process there are many moments when choices alter the outcome.

Being aware of those moments and the variety of choices and opportunities makes your attitude more flexible and less rigid.

Sketching the Basics helps you to sketch with an open mind. And an open mind is key to a good design process.
