Architects do not limit themselves to drawing, by inscribing a line on paper they create an idea that transforms a flat surface into a virtual space to consume, study and model. To develop this level of phenomenon the architect produces different types of drawings: design, presentation and construction, to name a few, which have developed historically over many centuries. Although the architect has used essentially the same type of standard drawing tools and materials for hundreds of years, the art of drawing is far from the same. The role of the architect is to be a form maker, a design specialist who will initiate and guide a design process. In the early stages of design they must first produce a series of design drawings, or typical study drawings which constitute the designer's main means of thinking. The drawing presentation aspect is an important part of project development as the architect refines their idea and design into a series of clear, coordinated drawings that track all aspects of the project. Once the client has approved the fully developed design or any additional design issues that have arisen have been resolved, construction drawings are then produced. In the final stage of the design process, the architect must not only provide legible drawings to engineers, construction workers and top officials, but must also include all details required by city, county and federal guidelines. These drawings are those to study and explore the proposed constructions. The word "drawing" denotes a variety of visual images, appearance, detail, perspective and study to successfully enter the viewer and occupy his mind with vigorous and exceptional ideas. An architect's thoughts, images and previous experiences inf...... middle of paper......those of their client. Study drawings solely represent the architect's personal way of thinking before they can be further developed. The presentation drawings are essential and entirely available to customers, to bring the architectural drawing to a level understandable by those who have viewed them. They are in place so the customer can decide whether they like the design or not and construction can begin. Finally, the construction drawings are used by the architect to communicate to the builders who will carry out the project, without them the buildings could never be permanently completed, at least in modern architecture. Since the late 18th century architectural drawings have been prized and purchased by collectors and they have then maximized their prosperity by displaying them as works of art. Architects don't just draw; they create and inscribe an idea.
