Further exploration on the conversations on the enduring value of manual sketching / hand drawing in contemporary architectural practice, drawing on insightful responses from a decade-old Quora discussion.

Amid the rise of digital tools and AI, arguably hand drawing / sketches remains essential for better designers and more thoughtful architecture, urging its renewed place in education and practice rather than letting it fade into nostalgia.
