Patterns
BabyVision Patterns is based on Baby Science which finds that babies notice the visual patterns of nature and the buildings around them. The images in this book have been design to include the elements of patterns that grab babies’ attention such as repetition, symmetry and curves. Building on the success of Look Touch Learn, BabyVision has been developed with a leading university baby lab. Each book in the new BabyVision series is designed to promote early visual development through targeted stimulation, using topics such as repetition, optical illusions, odd one out and sequencing. A bold and contrasting palette of colours is optimally suited to infant retinas, and looks completely different to more traditional books for babies.

Basics Architectural Presentation
At the beginning of their studies students of architecture are confronted with a wealth of different ways in which to visually present their designs. Expressing ideas in the form of drawings and models is usually required in the early stages of studying: “learning by doing” is the only way for students to quickly develop a repertoire for their design work. However, there are important issues to consider between the phases of devising the spatial concept and recreating it in a two- or three-dimensional drawing or physical model: How to construct a perspective freehand drawing? What plan drawings are necessary to present my design? What scale should my model be and what materials should I use to construct it? Basics Architectural Presentation combines the highly successful single volumes Technical Drawing, Freehand Drawing, CAD, Modelbuilding (new edition) and Architectural Photography from the series BASICS in a new volume. Step-by-step, it conveys possible ways to present
