Although the word monograph literally applies to any book devoted to any individual subject — be it a person, a place, a thing, or even an idea — in the realm of architecture books that one-word term is used more prevalently, if not strictly, in regards to individual architects and/or firms. A book on Le Corbusier is a monograph.

In 1540 Sebastiano Serlio drew this sketch in Book IV of his On Architecture.* Palladio doesn't describe this, but the roofs in his The Four Books of Architecture (1570) use the same pitch. Vignola's book on architecture was translated, of course. 1600, attributed to Vignola, comes from a book published in Spain.

Efficient residential architects will include the symbols for furniture in their drawings, but, they are just diagrams and may not bear relation to what you have in mind. In later stages, this could be an issue especially if you’re planning on using intricate furniture. However, these symbols help understand the layout.

Spatial thinking is focused on comparison, like maps, diagrams, sketches and visual arrangements. Monocultures lack diversity, and that's the very thing we need to retain if we are to allow for design to flourish.
