A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Isometric and axonometric drawings had become a preferred mode of three‐dimensionalisation (particularly in British circles – notably the axonometric projections of James Stirling's work that became referential images of the 1960s and 1970s), beloved by those of us who relied upon the apparatus of the drawing table and, in particular, the adjustable setsquare. This chapter discusses the work of Arata Isozaki, Andrea Branzi, Bernard Tschumi, Cedric Price and Wes Jones. The author remain in the territory of full and intense involvement on the part of these instigators – yet in every case, there is crystal clarity of communication to anyone with half an eye.
