Rendering & Illustration for the Design Process
Tue, 04 Nov 2008 00:00:00 GMT
When visualizing a building or an interior space designers often show soft illustrations in early design and realistic renderings in the final phase. This seminar will review technologies that allow the designer to use a 3D model to produce both illustration, photo-realistic renderings and simulated light. We will review the pros and cons to each software and strategies to use the technology as part of the design process. The rendering technologies to be reviewed are as follows:Piranesi - designed for developing illustration style renderings and visualization.Artlantis Studio - designed for developing photorealistic radiosity based images as part of the design workflow.Maxwell Render™ - designed as a physically correct, unbiased rendering engine capable of simulating light as in the real world.Speaker Bio:Mr. Simmons is the founder of ARCHVISTA Building Technologies and recognized for expertise in building information technology. He has spoken at major industry events including AEC Systems, AIA Desert Practice Conference and the AIA Monterey Design Conference. He has authored several books on Building Information Modeling and architectural technology. He was formerly the Director of Technology with the award winning firm of EHDD Architects and earned a Masters of Architecture from UC Berkeley in 1988.
