Bio and Back Story
ACAD / Revit Skills
-
ACAD - Can do, not a pro, but can do.
-
ACAD - Out produce CAD Jockeys - Yes, can do. How? NO REDMARKS! It takes a decade to get the experience to do CD's, what goes on a drawing, and what not. With CD's, CAD is the easy part.
-
Revit - theory and some management, no hands on.
-
Why are there so many hand sketches on my website?
-
Fast "One Of" detailing doesn't benefit much from CAD.
-
ALL of done on mass transit, using "lost" time for work.
- Visual brainstorming is best done with instinctual eye - hand coord / sketches. CAD Sketch Up, Revit, Maya etc are better at precision and duplication, Programs are GREAT to refine ideas, to "make them work". Much like Xerxes had a slave annoyingly whispering "Beware the Greeks" in his ear, we have our favorite CAD program whispering to us ctl r5, line, line, click, click, erase, ctl f4, rad 5,6,180 , line, select, line select, erase...... while we are trying to resolve the clients need for security and transparency and our inspirational flash linking the contextual fabric of the neighborhood with the clients logo. Really, which should we be concentrating on ?????
