Perspective, Projections and Design presents a selection of essays which discuss various aspects of image-making technologies/geometrical knowledge, and tools for architectural design, from the discovery of new formats for architectural drawing in the Renaissance to contemporary digital technologies for design and manufacturing. Architectural drawings must represent three-dimensional objects in two dimensions. Their geometrical underpinnings have for centuries limited the boundaries of what architects can draw, measure and ultimately build. The essays in this book suggest a correlation between the early modern invention of architectural design and today's digital shift, as the latter reverses many of the architectural paradigms that were initiated in the Renaissance
