Drawing On

Drawing On provides a platform for developing topics associated with or addressed through design-led research into architecture. Design-led research involves multiple modes and means to fully elaborate its thinking. The journal adds to the conventional format of a peer-reviewed journal an additional space of presentation intended to show design-research material in their native formats (including video, audio, animation, photography, paintings, drawings, documentation of models, designed texts, etc.).

The University of Edinburgh Library provides funding for the basic operational costs of the Edinburgh Diamond service. The journal itself receives no direct funding, either internally or externally, instead relying on volunteer labour for editorial and production management.
