The Importance of Hand Drawing (Analog) in the Face of New Digital Technologies

In this brief presentation, we question the importance and possibility of hand drawing or analog methods in the presence of digital technologies, as well as its role in architect education. We argue for its coexistence alongside digital technologies and emphasize its significance in the training of future architects. We assert that drawing is a form of communication intrinsic to human existence. Furthermore, it is a kinesthetic-cognitive act where perception, memory, and reasoning are intertwined in the process of architectural design conception.
