Pratt School of Architecture faculty member Jonathan A. Scelsa and Kyle Faircloth (B.Arch ’24), who works with Scelsa at his practice, op.Architecture Landscape, are featured in the November 2026 issue of Architectural Record, dedicated to Perspectives on Drawing. Curated by senior editor Patrick Templeton, the special feature brings together drawings from 30 architects and practices worldwide to examine the enduring role of architectural representation in design thinking, communication, and construction.
Their featured drawing, produced for op.Architecture Landscape’s Haverstraw Brick Museum in Haverstraw, New York, appears in the issue’s “Constructability” section. Originally developed as part of the project’s construction documentation, the drawing uses hidden linework to simultaneously reveal the curved Flemish-bond brick screen, folded bay window, custom masonry units, and concealed steel assembly of the museum’s façade.
The publication highlights drawing as both a technical instrument for communicating complex assemblies and a critical medium through which architectural ideas are developed, represented, and shared.
