The viewpoint of architect Đorđe Petrović on drawing as a research process, driven by his work at the Faculty of
Architecture, University of Belgrade within the field of architectural drawing, is to be taken as a starting point for the
analysis of the process of visual representation of architectural space in this paper. The analysis is primarily focused on
the relevant period from the beginning of the seventies, when the concept of the New School was formed, and Petrović
introduced the concepts of visual research and visual communications to the curriculum, in his reassessment of the role
of architectural drawings as a purely technical and information resource. The basic methodological question concerns
the interpretation of the concept of visual research, conducted within the reformed curriculum, as well as its position
in the then socio-cultural context and in relation to the actual practice of the time and the period that preceded it.
Looking at the drawing as a powerful me...ans of representations of space, the paper discusses architectural discourse
determined by architectural drawing as the product of social and theoretical practice, similar to the hypothesis of
Henri Lefebvre, presented in his work The Production of Space.
