Taking into account the client s brief and additional information obtained, the architect or engineer will start to prepare drawings illustrating possible solutions. The first drawings, of which there may be many, may not be very detailed, but will show what the planner has in mind. They should illustrate and make it possible to appreciate the general massing, the external appearance of the building and its position on the plot. The arrangement of the interior, at least a rough outline, should also be included in a first presentation of the planner s thoughts.
