MIES - Alex Kaiser's Drawings

Alex Kaiser is a fantastic drawer. He envisions worlds that we think of but hesitate to realize. His penmanship is both rigid and loose and his lines are sensual but sharp. The following set of drawings is a set of conceptual sketches Kaiser has done as an artist (he's an artist first, and then an architect second). Note clearly how he's not afraid to repeat certain lines in order to make them work. Note also how there's also the lack of things erased, which adds to the drawings' blatant candor. But first things first: enjoy:
