Download or read book Workshop for Designers written by Arpad Ronaszegi and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-12-05 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is one of three books in the Workshop series providing instructional tutorials for the use of Adobe(R) programs: Illustrator(R) + Photoshop(R) + InDesign(R) These tutorials are specifically created for professionals and students in interior design and architecture but could be beneficial for anyone interested in developing knowledge in these programs and exploring their application to digital visualization. Traditional manual rendering methods included sketching and constructed drawing - the former as a form of quick representation of an evolving idea and a form of design tool, the latter as a refined delineation and examination of a more mature proposal. The intent is not to replace or compete with either traditional methods or photo realistic renderings, rather provide users with effective and time saving digital methods for the design process and the production of presentation and communication documents. Book provides an in-depth study of Adobe Photoshop with a focus on using the program as a design and rendering tool for students and design professionals. Ibook has over 200 pages of systematic and detailed instructions on mastering the program and step-by-step instructions of explaining how to create various components of renderings and assemble them for final rendering views. The book is organized in the order that enables users to study Adobe Photoshop systematically and also serve as a logically organized reference resource for specific topics.
Download or read book Graphic Design for Architects written by Karen Lewis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Graphic Design for Architects is a handbook of techniques, explanations and examples of graphic design most relevant to architects. The book covers a variety of scales of graphic design, everything from portfolio design and competition boards, to signage and building super-graphics – to address every phase of architectural production. This book combines and expands on information typically found in graphic design, information design, and architectural graphics books. As architectural communication increases to include more territory and components of a project, it is important for designers to be knowledgeable about the various ways in which to communicate visually. For instance, signage should be designed as part of the process – not something added at the end of a project; and the portfolio is a manifestation of how the designer works, not just an application to sell a design sensibility. In thinking about architecture as a systematic and visual project, the graphic design techniques outlined in this book will help architects process, organize and structure their work through the lens of visual communication. Each chapter is titled and organized by common architectural modes of communication and production. The chapters speak to architects by directly addressing projects and topics relevant to their work, while the information inside each chapter presents graphic design methods to achieve the architects’ work. In this way, readers don’t have to search through graphic design books to figure out what’s relevant to them – this book provides a complete reference of graphic techniques and methods most useful to architects in getting their work done.

Download or read book The Threefold Logic of Advanced Architecture written by Manuel Gausa and published by Actar D, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-04-15 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last 30 years, Advanced Architecture has consolidated an interactive and informational logic that differs from that of Modernity and Postmodernity. This logic is threefold; it is modulated through three coexisting protocols -modes of action- whose peaks of intensity occur in three different decades: Conformative Protocols (1990-2000), Distributive Protocols (2000-2010) and Expansive Protocols (2010-2020). This work proposes a threefold cultural narrative whose interactive and informational logic differs from that of modernity and postmodernity. It positions three different ethos by critically approaching the architectural side of a cultural mutation that has been affecting the Western experimental areas of knowledge and practice since the end of the last century. A transformative process constituted by a constellation of transdisciplinary manifestations, accelerations, turns, shortcuts and clusterizations that by no means can be read under one single epistemological umbrella. In this sense, rather than approaching the practice of architecture focusing on its disciplinary inner specificity, this book approaches the research of experimental architecture focusing on its extra-disciplinary entanglements. It argues that a vast multiplicity of fields of knowledge participates in a cultural endeavour modulated through three protocols -forms of action- that singularize three decades: Conformative Protocols (1990-2000), Distributive Protocols (2000-2010) and Expansive Protocols (2010-2020). These three periods shouldn’t be read as three hermetic and concatenated monades, but as three different modulations of the same narrative, that is, as three overlapping and coexisting systems whose peaks of intensity occur in three different decades. However, the main purpose of this book is not limited to unveiling the ethos of these three conjugations. It also aims at using this framework as a “time-field”, a narrative map that moves from the classificatory to the cartographical in order to vectorize the last 30 years of experimental architecture. In this sense, this book argues that this threefold set of protocols represents the progressive attempt to constitute critical interiorities “looking for” and “produced through” interactions that are increasingly more intimate and whose agents are increasingly more diverse. A tendency oriented towards the consolidation of an “intimacy between strangers” that highly resonates with the cultural and technological landscape in which experimental architecture operates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital Drawing for Landscape Architecture won the “Award of Excellence” from the 2012 Professional Awards and Student Awards by the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA). For a hundred years, pencil, pen, markers, and watercolor have been the principal tools of representation for landscape architects and urban planners.
