Willem Springer Jr. made this architectural drawing, Plattegrond en opstand van de gevel van een villa, with graphite on paper. Architectural drawings like this one represent a complex convergence of art, design, and craft. While the lines themselves are precise and technical, they also carry the weight of social and cultural significance. The drawing embodies a vision for a building that will, in turn, shape the lives of its inhabitants and the surrounding landscape. The precision in the drawing hints at the amount of work that goes into the design and construction process, and the cultural value placed on domestic comfort. This drawing then isn't just a set of lines on paper, but a glimpse into the social and economic forces that shape our built environment.
