Final touch on building rendering.
Just for fun, I added a little extra "flare" to the rendering of the building I just designed.
http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d..._rendering.jpg I had the Farrari parked in the middle of the parking lot to get "doored", as LREYBURN would say. Enlargement: http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...d_at_entry.jpg Yes I know it's right hand drive now. |
Sooo.... What's wrong with right hand drive???:D

When I was 16 I decided to become an architect. I thought it would be cool to paint pretty pictures of future buildings, pictures that were devoid of litter, smog, jalopies, etc.
.. . . . . . . . . . Then I found out that there was more to the job. Drafting out floorplans, structural calculations, etc. I then realized I was out of my league and that this would not be a good career choice. . . . . . . . In about my third year of college I discovered corporate finance and that's where I hung my hat. :D Cool pic...cool building. What kind of software do you use these days to render something like that? -Dean |
light fixtures
Those light fixtures on the celings of the top floor are ugly. and what is up with the fenestration? It looks like the top floor is off of another building:LOL:
|
Dean,
Architecture is a brutal career. Long hours, low pay (comparatively speaking), arrogant clients and very little recognition. But I wouldn't change a thing. Very much a romantic field. Drafting is only about 30% of the process. Mostly coordinating everything from structure, details, budget (our enemy), materials, consultants, Owners, just to get the design you want. My biggest satisfaction is driving by a building I designed. Don't care if it's a fast food restaurant or a Medical clinic. I still get a charge out of it. The rendering software? Don't know. I provide CADD drawings to a rendering company and a few days later I get proofs to review. |
MT Nester.......
Blame the rendering artist for the lights. Just add interior walls. They disappear. Another building top???........it works within the areas context. Just imagine it in Tuscon. It fits. I'm getting critiqued by a guy with spoons in his eyes?????????????? |
Hey MT nester,
I'm sure that the architect truly appreciates your professional critique and that he will make those changes necessary to satisify your thirst for structural splender. GHEEEEEZ! |
Steve,
Make it a red Cobra....and instead of a clothes store a Doctors office. |
LOL, good to see you posting John. Hows the back and neck doing?
|
Don't worry Larry. All Architects are use to this abuse. Just read the first two sentences to Dean.

Steve,
I have drawn many of sets of floor plans over the years (residential) and if I have learned anything it is that you cannot please everyone half of the time, the others don't matter anyway. It is a brutal line of work and sometimes trying to stay within budget and provide everything the client wants is like pulling teeth. Did you ever see Mr. Blandings builds his dream house? Nothing like trying to put 10,000 sq ft in an 1,800 sq ft home. All for just under $18,000.00 :LOL: Looking good. |
Joe,
Neck and head are doing better. I just gotta be careful not to further scramble whatever brains I have left. I do have a Harry Potter looking scar near my hairline that looks interesting. |
John, I think that already is a doctor's office, or at least medical office building. Look at the floor to floor heights, look about 15'-16'.
The software looks like ArchiCAD. Lemme guess, the hydraulic elevator is the all brick tower to the right of the entry? 17,000 sf floor plates? Your tenants will thank you for that long overhang with that much glass exposure, especially on this west face. |
Way off Miles. Geeze, and you're an architect?
Office building: 8,000 s.f. plates. 16': 1st to 2nd, 12'-8": 2nd-3rd-4th. Restaurant on top. Two central elevators, masonry towers are stairs. The Cobra is parked on the east side. Minimal windows on the west. The scale of the cars is very close to correct in the rendering. |
John,
Just remember, Chicks dig scars. :D OK Steve, done hijacking your thread now. |
Hey Steve,
Where is the HC parking? :LOL: Just Kidding....... |
Hmmm,
Is that what I see in the spot next to the Cobra? ADA is sometime challenging, isn't it? |
Steve,
It's no longer the ADA in Texas, it's Texas Accessibility Standards. ADA on steroids. |

it's not vacant; it's a saturday!!! :p
speaking of ADA..... it surely doesn't exist in Europe!! I don't know what all the people in wheel chairs and with various disabilities do when climbing the zillions of stairs at all the churches, cathedrals, museums, etc. Just going from corner market to corner market would be a major challenge in some of the really old towns, etc. ok.... signing back out now! off to check out: TCU, ACU, Texas Tech. oh boy!!! glad as hell i've already done all that. whew! college admissions nowadays is daunting!!! :eek: :eek: hey, Steve....(blues Steve) any tips for college admissions??? :) K |
