With architectural education and students in mind, this work teaches the creative process for designing architectural projects.
''My parents always had a hard time grounding me. While my brother would pound on the door asking to be let out, I would retreat into my own world, spending hours dreaming and drawing. My first encounter with architecture was at age 10, when my parents began a construction project. I loved watching those ink drawings that gradually took shape and transformed into our home. By 13, I had no doubts: I wanted to be an architect.'' - Gui Mattos

With architectural education and students in mind, this book teaches the creative process for designing architectural works.
Every creative activity requires a work method combined with talent. Due to shortcomings in education, students do not always receive the necessary didactics from their design professors to develop a design method capable of enabling them to address any level of complexity in a given project. Available software (2D and 3D) is merely a tool for developing and/or presenting ideas. Creativity, therefore, remains an essential factor and a key differentiator for architecture professionals in the job market.
