For Representation, a New Reality: Hybrid Immersive Models

In alignment with the relevant disciplinary tools and methods, we analyse the innovative potential of cubical perspective combining the uniqueness of handmade sketches with their digital navigation. The investigated model (called hybrid for the above mentioned reason) offers the scholar a twofold opportunity: on the one hand, the possibility to exploit the intuitive imme-diacy of the creative idea which is made objective by the graphical signs, and, on the other hand the possibility of manipulating the communication and configuration features of immersive techniques. Over the last few years, the authors have delved into the scientific fundamentals of cubical perspec-tive and verified the peculiarities of the solutions through experimental ap-plications pertaining to the context of architectural drawing. The case stud-ies presented were pedagogically tested and were aimed at promoting the knowledge of the presuppositions that inform the work of good formal struc-ture and conformation designers.
