the society is becoming more complex. there is an increase in information and desires of the city. with broad issues including material, environment, ecology, and behavior, clear diagram becomes more important within today.

content compiled by DOM publishers, ‘architectural diagrams: construction and design manual’ is a composition of more than 1500 sketches, renderings and models from the world’s leading avant garde studios. broken in to two volumes, the illustrated books feature the work of LAVA, JDS architects, UNStudio, BIG, jurgen mayer h. architects and périphériques architects, among others.

diagrams have become a visual means of communication, spanning linguistic and cultural boundaries. used now more than ever before, the tool becomes an aid, precisely explaining and delivering the design concept. varied in quality, detail and approach, the renderings and sketches capture a style that is as individualistic as the final design product.

is it for me? if you are an architecture buff of any kind this book is for you. full-color images provide insight into the design process and methodologies of some of the most significant and experimental structures of our time.
