For Bernard Tschumi, "drawing is thinking" and "being with a piece
of paper and a pen does not feel like working. It can be sheer bliss",
he writes, "seeing thought materialise itself in front of your eyes
through the almost unconscious mediation of your hand. It is a form
of notation of the mind."
This collection of previously unpublished drawings, diagrams, and
other remnants of the architectural process provides new insight into
well-known projects like the Parc de la villette and the New Acropolis
Museum, as well as tracing a number of unbuilt pr oposals and
speculations. Notations (Diagrams & Sequences) offers a unique view
into the working process of Bernard Tschumi and his office.
