Alphabet to sketch(up)

[ntxdave]

OK - I finally finished my "X" building (I had many problems along the way - especially with the render to achieve what I was after). Hope you enjoy. I used SketchUp (with some plugins), Twilight Render and Skatter. So here are my renders:

Kind of the "complete" picture................

Sounds great and makes the concept more readable.

[ntxdave]

Thanks Majid. I will keep in mind for future projects.

Usually, architects use different outline formats to represent the process and final design. It mainly is there to represent track of the concept and its development. It is not a linear process though, and there are back-and-forth steps and sometimes the final solution is far away from the starting point.

OK - here is a set of "ideas" for my next project, an F building. I am leaning toward Version 2 only with some additions. I am thinking about moving the two sections farther apart and adding a square building in between them. I am thinking about this being a hotel with a restaurant in between the hotels.

Any feedback appreciated.

[majid]

That is it,... You are discovering the form language and opportunities...

[ntxdave]

Thanks Majid. It is a learning process.

[ntxdave]

Been distracted for a while. Will try to get back to this soon.

[majid]

Hope to see more of you soon.
An unseen friend here bought me some spare time, I appreciate it.
That is why I had some time to develop this "B" form, from the sketches of the book.

Another neat one.

Thank you, as it has been a while since I did architectural jobs, I was somehow far from the goal of the forum. This month I could come back to the subject.

Thank you for sharing this insightful article! It provided me with a fresh perspective on the topic and expanded my understanding.More Writing Help By Myassignmenthelp

Just realized that one of the sketches of the book that is based on the letter "S" does not match the plan (2D design of the "S" letter). please accept my apology. and here is a render of it (the same wrong form)

Agin, nice work sir!

Hope I can back to modeling agin. Still distracted and can participate in the forum but not model for a while.

[majid]

Me either..
I wish you could have some more spare time and enjoy modeling soon.

This is the process that has been dropped between the 2D sketch and the volume sketch. it shows the iteration from right to left. (I redrew the sketches)

Still thinking about this. Capital 'M'.

This is great, now you can develop the base idea, add/remove parts , etc...

Ta mate, two properties attached, so I am making components work here now.
