Positivity
To draw is an affirmative act
A designer's communication skills - the ability to listen, speak, write and represent ideas - provide insights into how well he or she can function within a professional practice.
The last, representing ideas, is what distinguishes architects from others. In the final analysis, architecture is our ability to turn ideas into representations.
Whether the representation is in the form of a diagram, sketch, rendering or physical or digital model, the architect's ability to represent precedes the construction of reality.
- Robert M. Beckley, FAIA
Professor and Dean Emeritus

(His) graphs are extremely helpful in the understanding and buy-in by major and diverse stakeholders when a complex process and analysis is being addressed. The interactive graphic evolution of the discussion allows the stakeholders to identify, organize and process the key variables and their effect on the primary and secondary outcomes.
