Though computer rendering has been a huge boon to designers, drawing by hand is still indispensable when it comes to developing ideas and presenting concept art. Creative Sketching in Product Design offers readers a square-one guide to all the skills required to create professional, realistic product drawings: perspective, including one-, two-, three-point and cavalier perspective; light & shadow, including shadow boundaries and projections; and coloring techniques, which includes material effects for wood, plastic and metal. Step-by-step diagrams and exercises make this an ideal resource for the classroom, while also being fully accessible to the self-directed learner. A broad selection of existing products, with photographs alongside the original concept development sketches, offer a look into the ways in which sketching can be the bridge between an idea and a usable product.

A must have for product design students! Are designers still making drawings by hand? Isn't it more advanced to use a computer in this computer era? Some may think sketching is a disappearing skill, but if you ever enter a design studio, you will find out differently. Studios still make sketches and drawings by hand and in most cases, quite a lot of them. They are an integral part of the decision-making process, used in the early stages of design, in brainstorming sessions, in the phase of research and concept exploration, and in presentation. Drawing has proved to be, next to verbal explanation, a powerful tool for communicating not only with fellow designers, engineers or model makers but also with clients, contractors and public offices. This book can be regarded as a standard book on design sketching, useful for students in product design.

The resulting projects share a sense of personality far beyond the traditional computer-produced output, with illustrative elements created and united by the artist's hand.
