Publisher's Synopsis
This book provides a comprehensive method for constructing perspective drawings together with a concise overview of the history and theory of perspective. Despite the advent of CAD (computer-aided design), perspective drawing still forms an important part of architectural education and is extensively used by practising architects in presenting their designs to clients and in architectural competitions. This book provides a primer to the subject, covering the development of perspectival space and its implications in art, architecture and landscape. It should be of interest to students of architecture, landscape design, urban studies, interior design and art.
