Lerch Bates is excited to highlight Bradford J. Prestbo, FAIA—architect, author, educator, and valued team member—as he joins David Damon, AIA of Perkins & Will for a fast-paced, hands-on workshop that brings freehand sketching back into the design process.
Based on Brad’s workbook From Mind to Paper: Enhance Design Thinking Through Drawing, the session guides participants through sketching exercises that spark clearer thinking, faster idea generation, and stronger visual communication. Attendees will practice drawing architectural elements and concepts while exploring how sketching enhances creativity, problem‑solving, and design storytelling.
This workshop is ideal for students, emerging professionals, educators, and practicing architects looking to reconnect with drawing as a powerful tool for design thinking. We’re thrilled to see Brad sharing his expertise and representing Lerch Bates in such an impactful way.
