​Views from above, that humans cannot enjoy often, are a fundamental part of the design process. They help give shape to a concept and aim to reflect an approximation of what will become reality. They reflect how a place looks after the design is implemented, often in a better way than plans and elevation will be able to show.

The drawings that represent the perception of the user, are essential when we aim to understand the quality of the design. They tell in much greater detail how people will experience the public or private places. Sometimes, even a quick sketch is enough to express the concept behind a specific design.

​A drawing that shows the right perspective can give an idea of the true scale of a project. Height differences can be appreciated as well as the interaction between the man-made context and the natural environment, something that cannot be seen in a plan. This type of drawing provides a much more complete vision of the landscape and the design scheme.

Quick sketches can help represent design schemes and first approximations to that which will be the final design. They offer a general perspective and a complete picture to be considered before addressing the more specific details.  The strokes also indicate how much emphasis we want to put on certain elements, and which are relieved to a second plane.
