      Hi everyone,

      doing early stage architectural design, I discovered that it is so much easier to paint windows and curtain walls on to the building rather then modeling it. It speeds up the design process tremendously. You can see a snapshot of the project I'm currently working on, using this technique. I learned it from all the great Google earth models and figured that design could be done in this manner as well. What I was doing so far is dismembering Google earth models to get textured wall systems. However, as you all know the resolution there is minimal.

      So now comes the BIG question: Did you ever encounter a wall system textures library? (and where it could be found)?

        Hello
        I know that somewhere on the SCF forums people have posted many useful texture links, but I can´t remember where 😳
        What I am looking at right now might come in handy, if by "wall system textures" you mean something like this:

          to everyone who will read this post: if you use texture to speed up your design - post here, maybe we can learn something from each other.
