English term or phrase: layout pad (architecture & design)

Bonjour,

à quoi peut bien correspondre ce terme dans l'extrait suivant:

"Here begins 'design' in the wholly conventional sense. You will have a model from your survey; if not, make one now. According to the nature of the job, you will proceed on the drawing board, in the layout pad, and in your workshop examining and developing ideas..."

Merci d'avance.

French translation:bloc layout

Explanation:
Le papier "layout" (on a adopté l'anglais) est semi-transparent, à mi-chemin entre un papier calque et un papier dessin, très pratique pour la création en brouillon.

carnet à croquis

Explanation:
...Selon la nature du projet, vous passerez de la table à dessin au carnet à croquis puis à l'atelier pour examiner et développer des idées.

En fait, c'est carnet à croquis, bloc à esquisses ou tablette graphique (version électronique). Des milliers d'occurrences sur le net. Nul besoin de privilégier l'anglais.
