Single-Handedly is a curated selection of contemporary architectural illustrations by Nalina Moses, an architect and writer who lives and works in New York City. After being trained to draw with both digital and analog tools, Moses "recently returned to hand drawing. Finding it to be direct, pleasurable, and intuitive, she wondered whether other architects felt the same way."

"Single-Handedly is the result of this inquiry. An inspiring collection of 220 hand drawings by more than forty emerging architects and well-known practitioners from around the world, this book explores the reasons they draw by hand and gives testimony to the continued vitality of hand drawing in architecture. The powerful yet intimate drawings carry larger propositions about materials, space, and construction, and each one stands on its own as a work of art."

Single-Handedly features drawings from over 20 international architects including Perry Kulper, Dwayne Oyler, Frank Escher and Studio Fuksas.

We hope to see you there!
