Abstract
This paper considers a particular type of architectural drawing, the overlay plan, where a variety of layers introduce not only physical
dimensions but also different combinations of information or times. Two specific drawings are discussed which both concern the
regeneration of significant historic city centres, but despite certain similarities of context and purpose, both have been transformed
into design proposals in dramatically different ways. In both the monumental centre of Tarragona and the regeneration of the
Ribera district in Barcelona, centred around the Market of Santa Caterina (by EMBT), particular methods of graphic
representation were crucial to the development of the designs. Moneo (2021) highlights the particular significance of the overlay plan

research investigates how and to what degree the design processes in these two cases has ...
