前言 在我的印象里,相较于其他作图方式,手绘具有非常强烈的图面感染力,空间的温度、生命的气息都可以用它捕捉到,它与设计者有情感对话;从笔触、色彩、图面张力,可梳理出设计者对空间的思维活动,从这个脉络中看到设计者的专业素养与态度。在从事多年的景观教育与实务生涯中,我看过许许多多的图面,手绘在每一次项目方案的探索过程中都是极具魅力和生命力的,是发人深思的,是一张图,又好像不只是一张图,创作者脑海中有意思的想法可淋漓尽致地在图面推展开来;借由观看图面,不在现场,犹在现场,仿佛与创作者、与基地展开了设计交流,那是非常有趣的一件事。 不仅如此,通过手绘媒介,在教育现场可以自由地展开设计对话,让思维碰撞,让问题在这里解决,让创意在这里产出与实践。手绘不只是一个表现技法工具,景观设计的要义是学会如何发现问题、解决问题。在专业学习训练过程当中,手绘表现就是能带来强大推动力和影响力的作图方式之一。 我们从大师巨匠的经典案例中就能发现,在他们的原始手稿中,大多是严谨的逻辑推理和细腻的细节表达。当今参数化设计软件兴起,许多基本图像可信手拈来以剪裁、拼贴,更多流行图面表现形式不断涌现。手绘表现技法需要长时间的积累,无法复制贴上,但当我们在教学、与业主等对话的现场,有一支笔、一张纸,方案即可跃然纸上。对我来说,手绘时,在不断推敲过程中,我们对现场—空间—人的理解会更加深入与细致,方案也会更加成熟。学生迈入职场,如果能在一定的场合下,相对快速地手绘出一个形式感不错的草图设计方案,那么相信他会更容易获得专业认可,这也是电脑软件所无法比拟的特殊优质能力。 认识闫超多年,当时她是硕士交换生,一次我在系上老师办公室看到一幅手绘作品,惊艳不已,后来又陆续看到她的作品,可以肯定她拥有很强的手绘表现和文字表达能力。她师承闫杰老师,这本书是他们二人参与合作编写的教材。从书中手绘原稿图都可以看出作者的创作思想和艺术审美及设计专业的表现。对于初学手绘的学生和爱好手绘这门技法的人来说,这些是极好的学习范本。虽然数位设计应用在景观、建筑等各个领域都十分专精活络,但我还是非常希望每一位学习设计的学生都能掌握优秀的手绘表达能力。如果你想在设计中看到更多的可能与想象,那么《景观与室内手绘设计表现》是很值得你参考学习的。 东海大学景观学系教授兼主任 2021年6月This is a preface in favor of Yan Chao’s writing achievements, a dedicated master degree student from Suzhou University who I first met in Suzhou, China in the IDEAKING Awards 2015 in my capacity as Vice President of the International Landscape Design Industry Association (ILIA) and member of the jury of the awards given that year.That year I handled Yan Chao an award for a distinguished project she participated in, furthermore, she was very kind to help me during the entire event we organized with ILIA. After I met her, she kept in contact with me, asking for advice and interested on discussing design topics, which is not common in China. Her interest in design is very clear and her skills to develop drawings are outstanding. It helps her very much the more than 3 years of experience she has had in the professional field.Almost 6 years have passed in the blink of an eye. Since she entered the education industry after graduation,she proved her love for design with actions. Remembering that we have been kept in touch via WeChat, she shares with me her handpainted design,and she also sends me the manuscripts drawn by her and asks for suggestions. This is extremely impressive for me. I think the graduate study career has made her more aware of the meaning of design. Sometimes looking at the manuscripts she sent me, I find them difficult. Now that computers are popular today, I can still maintain my love for handpainted design. It is worth applauding for her. It is very important for people who are engaged in landscape design to develop the good habit of handpainted design. We say that handpainting has a strong driving force for solving design problems. At the same time, it is easier to win the trust of the other party by conveying the design concept to the first party by handpainting.Recently she has shared her experience in teaching for several years, and organized the handpainted performance into a book according to the difficulties of students’ learning. Although she worked with many teachers and corporate staff to complete it, I’m still happy to support it. The book is about to be published, therefore, I was invited to write a preface for her. She deserves an opportunity because I believe her thinking is very good. If this book can be published, more people who love handpainting will benefit a lot. Furthermore, it is also a kind of experience output and public sharing.Yan Chao is also a disciplined person, polite to her classmates, colleagues and teachers. She has a kind character and strong commitment towards the assignments given to her as I have witnessed in the organization of the ILIA IDEAKING Awards in Suzhou.Therefore, I am happy to give my full support for Yan Chao’s publication of this handdrawing textbook. I believe that Yan Chao is serious and meticulous about her profession. As I witnessed at the ILIA ceremony in Suzhou, she has a kind personality and a firm commitment to the tasks assigned to her. I also believe that the publication of this book can help more people who love handpainting and design like her.Yours Sincerely,Alex CamprubiDesign Director of PuBang Design Institute & Vice President of International Landscape Design Industry AssociationGuangzhou, August 28, 2021
