Drawing: a source for manual creation at school and in life

Focusing on the planning process as a distinctive human skill, the book emphasizes the integration of freehand drawing in designing and representing objects, particularly those with irregular shapes. It explores the use of technical sketches in constructing these objects and discusses applications across various materials such as paper, cardboard, fabrics, wood, and metals. The grid method is highlighted for its effectiveness in scaling figures up or down using templates that can be drawn and traced, enhancing the creative process in design.
