The profi cient and talented use of excellent freehand drawings is a powerful tool to effectively communicate with clients, stakeholders and cross disciplinary teams.

Shown are preliminary examples of city centre development design advice.These illustrate possibilities for different sections of the Wharf 2007 scheme alongside the Grand Union Canal basin in central Birmingham.
