TextPublisher: Cambridge, Massachusetts : MIT Press, 1997Description: 505 págnas : ilustraciones ; 24 x 19 cm.ISBN: 9780262661133; 0262661136; 0262161699.Subject(s): Dibujo arquitectónico | Diseño arquitectónico | PerspectivaDDC classification: 720.222 P438a Abstract: The relationship between the architectural representation and its intended product - a building - has undergone a profound transformation over the centuries. Before the age of modern technology, the systematically predictive role of architectural drawing so taken for granted today was less dominant in the evolution from architectural idea to build work. The age of computer-aided design has brought with it a stricter standard of fidelity. However, contemporary architecture need not simply accept the inevitability of a technological imperative. This book demonstrates that representation is never a neutral tool or mere picture of a future building
