One of the most challenging aspects of this sphere is to see an object or an image, and convey the exact message given by it in a specified format; formats consists of cross sections, details and structural integrity. Without the potential to hand-draft, Designers struggle to grow and mature like their predecessors, who created the path the current Designers are walking on.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en\">Many Design aspirants are unable to imagine that hand-drafting can come to fruition in their career. Generally, it is perceived that sketching is a great instrument to use during the schematic phase of a project, but not much emphasis is laid on the other facets of Design where it can be implemented. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en\">These days, students prefer to align their concentration to software from beginning, mostly because they are an easy instrument and using them is exciting for a neophyte. While Design software are indispensable, over-reliance on them can obstruct emerging professionals\u2019 imagination and capabilities.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Design students always have a question, why is hand-drafting done in the era of CAD (Computer Aided Design).
