Features: The purpose of hand-drawn design and computer design is the same, both serving as a means of expressing a certain visual style. The only difference lies in the methods they employ. From a cognitive perspective, both are manifestations of a designer's creative thinking, with no distinction between superiority or inferiority. The characteristics of computer design include precision, high efficiency, ease of modification, and the ability to replicate in large quantities, making it highly convenient to operate. However, its drawback is that it can sometimes appear rigid, cold, and lacking vitality, which may hinder better communication. On the other hand, hand-drawn design typically reflects the designer's initial creative intent. It can capture the designer's fleeting thoughts in real time and stay synchronized with their intentions. During the process of exploration and practice in design creation, hand-drawn sketches vividly and vividly document the designer's creative passion, infusing it into the work. Therefore, the features of hand-drawn design are its ability to convey the designer's creative ideas more directly, resulting in works that are lively and approachable, with a sense of emotional connection to nature. Hand-drawn design works often contain a high degree of spontaneity, which is precisely where their charm lies. This book focuses on expressive sketching, conceptual presentation drawings, and diagrammatic thinking, aiming to integrate creative design thinking with expressive techniques. Adhering to a step-by-step training approach, it emphasizes practical application skills, making it concise and highly practical. This book is suitable for classroom teaching in industrial design programs at colleges and universities, as well as for reference and inspiration for designers engaged in product design.
