Make anyone understand your concept in five seconds. Architectural drawings are hard for clients and the public to read, and diagrams are how you translate them. This free eBook, written with Tifa Studio, explains what a diagram is, why we draw it, more than 15 diagram types and how to choose the right one for your project, with tens of examples and tips.
From concept and circulation to programme and site forces, you learn which diagram answers which question and how to strip away everything that does not serve the point. It is the skill that makes your idea land in juries, competitions and client meetings.
📦 What's inside
- What is a diagram, and why do we create it? The thinking behind abstraction, before the graphics.
- Diagram types and choosing the best for your project: which diagram fits which question, from massing to relationships and programme.
- More than 15 different types of diagrams, each with examples. The mass diagram pages show how the mass of a project was formed, for example four unit plans drawn for four different users.
- Tens of examples and tips: hand drawn bubble and relationship diagrams for ground levels, and exploded programme layouts level by level.
- Unlimited Q&A: questions about the book are welcome at [email protected].

Learning by trial and error is slow
Studio teaches you to design, but many practical skills are left for you to work out alone, and scattered tutorials rarely give a clear path.
-
Scattered information
Answers are spread across videos, forums and old notes.
-
No clear method
Without a structure it is hard to know what to do first.
-
Late mistakes
Learning only from crits means finding problems late.
-
Little time
Long lectures do not fit around studio deadlines.
With this ebook
- One guide, read at your own pace
- Opens on computer, tablet or phone
- Keep it as a reference for later projects
- Apply the method to your own work
