Basics Interior Architecture 03: Drawing Out the Interior is a comprehensive introduction to the representation of interior space through drawing and modelling.

The book introduces the reader to a range of techniques and methods and describes when and where to use them. Starting with what is meant by interior architecture and why designers draw in the first place, it goes on to explore what one might draw and when.

The text is supported by detailed studies of contemporary work, alongside activities and resources.
Starting with what is meant by interior architecture and why designers draw in the first place, it goes on to explore what one might draw and when.

It considers the idea that the method we choose to draw with influences the way we think and therefore what we design. It includes sketches and drawings from Le Corbusier, Iannis Xenakis, Mies van der Rohe and Carlo Scarpa.

Drawing Out The Interior ... is easily one of the best academic books of its kind. Ro Spankie's book is beautifully structured and written with the right balance between text and image to engage the reader visually and intellectually. This book will, in my view, be a big hit with students but ... also ... an even bigger hit in the realm of professional practice.

Ed Hollis, Big Stone Collective Blog, 21 September 2011
Accessible for first year students while still interesting for second and third year. Some great examples of how designers use drawing not only as a visualisation tool but also as a design tool. The book can be used as a textbook for specific workshops as well as a great reference book for students to understand the different ways of communicating their design intent.

Valerie Mace, London College of Communicatrion, UK
I love this range, always clear and very student friendly.

Sue Martin, Basingstoke College of Technology, UK
I found it lively, stimulating and informative on the role of drawing within the design process. Page layout was well structured and the text covered a wide range of relevant commentary about the importance of drawing in all contexts.

Werner Richter, University Campus Suffolk, UK
Provides an interesting perspective on the drawing of interiors ... Like the rest of the Basics range, it's well presented and the layout is good.

Donna Stephens, Plymouth College of Art, UK
Useful and relevant. Easy to navigate and understand.
