Book Overview
As its title suggests, Basics of Architectural Design equips designers with fundamental techniques and principles—the building blocks of their craft. It digs into the foundational elements of design while sprinkling in a healthy dose of wit and insight. Yet, beyond technical prowess, there lies a loftier purpose. For, as the author explains, architecture isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s also about societal responsibility, cultural resonance, environmental stewardship and personal aspirations. It’s about weaving narratives into the very fabric of our cities. While this book covers the basics, it leaves room for individual expression. The true magic lies in what each architect chooses to do with this knowledge. Pardeep Singh Maan concedes that no manual can ever prescribe the soul of a design—the whispered conversations between creator and context. This handy book, complete with illustrations and useful tips, will, however, go a long way in helping an aspiring architect pave his or her path. About the Author: Pardeep Singh Maan isn’t your everyday architect—he’s a design virtuoso who’s been shaping brilliant spaces and even sharper minds since 2006. With both a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Architecture firmly in his toolkit, he blends the precision of blueprints with an irreverent twist. A faculty member at Chitkara University’s Department of Architecture, he turns every lesson into an adventure where every curve and corner tells a story. His acclaimed work, Absolute Essentials of Architectural Drawing, has become the go-to manual for turning technical drawing into an art form. Whether he’s in the classroom or out in the field, his commitment to sustainable, human-centric spaces shines through—leaving a playful yet profound mark on architecture and inspiring a generation to build not just structures, but legacies.
