Drawing Forth Built Environments: (Dis)Embodied Envisionings of Architecture
Malmö University, Faculty of Culture and Society (KS), Department of Urban Studies (US).
2018 (English)Conference paper, Oral presentation with published abstract (Other academic)
Abstract [en]

Much as how we think greatly affects how we act, so too does how we draw (envision) architecture significantly affect how we build architecture. Our realised built environments, in turn, shape our behaviours, our relationships with other beings, and with the planet as a whole. In short, architecture, as built form, shapes our fundamental humanity, as well as standing as a testimony of it – for better, and for worse. Given these intimate bonds between envisioning, erecting, and inhabiting our built environments, this chapter will critically focus upon contemporary, normative visual practices in architecture, most specifically on architectural drawing. The intent is to help propose and advance alternative tactics for on architectural drawing – tactics which amongst other things, endeavour to: move beyond the dominance of perspectival vision, including the reduction of architecture to image; contest the blind-faith in trivial form-making, and in novelty for the sake of novelty alone; disentangle bonds between neo-liberal production and on architectural drawing production; reconnect on architectural drawing to embodiment and the lifeworld.
