An Introduction to the Graphic Language (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an introductory treatise on the graphic language, a written language that is expressed through not words but lines and symbols. The author takes an educational approach to assist readers in not only learning the 'vocabulary' of this language but also its grammar and idiomatic structure. There is an emphasis on the historical and contextual development of the graphic language in order to illuminate its use and evolution which guides the reader towards an understanding of its nuances, depth and flexibility as a language. Delving into the subject from the perspective of reading house plans, topographic maps, and perspective, the author demonstrates the utility of this language in expressing three-dimensional forms and translating them onto paper. The book is structured to allow readers to practice and develop their reading comprehension skills before moving on to writing exercises which include freehand drawing and the use of instruments. With a range of simple house plans, the author focuses on the application of graphical language to architecture before delving into the complexities of presenting buildings in 3D perspective. This book takes a novel approach to teaching a subject not often addressed in a purely linguistic context and is an excellent introduction to a subject with wide applications in fields ranging from architecture, engineering, and technical writing to web design and user experience. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331997054_0
