Abstract

Project vision is a key commodity in building a team with a common outlook. Drawings are a common tool in sharing vision, so a more disciplined and reproducible approach to this medium could be of significant value across families of project work. Moving from disposable discussion guide sketches and incompletely defined high-quality paintings to a methodology in line with other media like UML diagrams calls for more thought in the meaning, utility, and long-term value of various forms of whiteboard sketches, concept art, and brochure quality depictions.
