Also new to this edition is the author's unique incorporation of digital technology into his successful methods. While covering essential drawing principles, this book presents: approaches to drawing section views of building interiors, methods for drawing modified perspectives, techniques for creating accurate shade and shadows, expert styles of freehand sketching and diagramming, and much more.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Summarizes the best of Chings Graphics Advice
I'm a second year architecture student and I've already collected a dozen or so books on graphics and techniques. Whats good about this book is contains most of Ching's best tips all in one thin desk reference. Very useful. Very Practical.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - architectural graphics
This book is a lot older than I expected, one of the earlier published but all the same it came quickly, thanks :)



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book!
I'm an architecture student from Brazil and i gotta say i just looove this book. I strongly recommend it for students and professionals as well.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Explains little
I don't know why this book is so popular. It's so hard to follow. The instructions are skimpy (no step by step, just the final product), the verbiage is meant to impress not explain, and it contains the exact same drawings that are in other Ching books, such as Design Drawing. The drawings themselves are complicated, obtuse, and for all the talk of the importance of line weight, they have almost none (making them even harder to read).



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Uncomplicated, basic
If you are a person like myself whose idea of a perspective drawing is a line of telegraph poles disappearing into the distance next to a road, then this is the book for you, and me as it turned out.
Starting from the different grade of pencil through the different forms of architectural presentations, with easy to read explinations.
I would strongly recommend this book to anyone who is learning architectural graphics.
