Summary: Despite being at the forefront of high-tech innovation in architecture, Chris Wilkinson is an architect who believes passionately in the importance of drawing by hand. Where many practices are now dominated by computeraided design, Wilkinson still uses drawing as a way to think through ideas, to grapple with design problems and as a tool of communication. This volume brings together images selected from 20 years of Wilkinsons sketchbooks, presenting a fascinating record not just of draughtsmanship but of the creation of architectural narrative.
