My 10-year-old nephew Viki communicates
with the world through drawings.
His latest masterpiece presents a series
of occupations. He is self-thought and copies from various sources,
nevertheless the illustrations are uniquely his.
One profession noticeable missing from
his line-up, is that of the architect.
The absence of my own ‘calling’ on the
drawings reminded me, how in popular representations of the architect, the accessories
of the job are still the drawing board and the T square (or parallel square)
while I have used neither for over 2 decades.
That though led me to explore my memory
for films with architects and I quickly came up with a handful: Liam Neeson in ‘Love
Actually’, Pierce Brosnan in ‘Mamma Mia’, Steve Martin in ‘It’s Complicated’
and one of (the very few) women, Michelle Pfeiffer in ‘One Fine Day’.
Then, I searched online and found lots
of references to other movies and actors and characters...
But back to me. Naturally.
While I rarely consider myself to be
‘typical’ of anything, I do carry some of the usual characteristic of
fifty-something architects, in that, I started off my career on the
above-mentioned board with the T and parallel squares and using pencils and
pens.
Still, the majority of my career has
been spent with a computer mouse in my hand (wired) and tapping at a keyboard.
I kept up with sketching, doodling,
scribbling and note-taking, but these latter activities were on paper.
Then, recently I went strictly
paper-free.
Joining up the Movement toward
paperfreeconstruction, I have committed to do all my work without the use of
paper.
Cold turkey, no transition period.
I have been pretty good with the mouse
for over two decades, drawing, modelling, manipulating models.
However, I have a way of ‘thinking with
my hands’ I was very aware, that I had to find an appropriate digital
pencil-pen and become comfortable with using it.
I had two versions to choose from.
The first was an HP pen that accompanied
my work HP Elitebook (laptop).
The second, an Apple Pencil that came with
an IPad, I inherited from my daughter.
It is early days, and I am getting to
know both, but one thing is already obvious, that, there is very limited (or
no) compatibility between the various media makes and supporting pens.
The other, that I already have a strong
preference for the Apple Pencil if for nothing else, no batteries needed.
I’ll get my nephew to draw me holding an
IPad and Apple Pencil, next time I see him.
