Study Architecture 
ProPEL 
Author(s): Priya Jain
Architectural drawings serve a strategic purpose- they are ‘blueprints’ to facilitate a building’s construction. But what happens after construction is ‘finished’? As the building moves through time, how does it deal with documenting its change? This paper deals with the issue of representing ‘time’ architecturally– through an analysis of historical and contemporary examples, it investigates how the life of a building is chronicled. Is there any merit in tracking and representing this change beyond its immediate value of facilitating a modification. Whether and how does the conscious and deliberate ‘drawing of time’ inform architectural practice?
