Presentation Technique for Architectural Projects

Start by getting to know Sergio and Germán, the architects at the head of the DX Architects studio, who tell you about their career, work methodology, and the main projects they have carried out. Then review their influences in the world of architecture.

Learn how to elaborate the presentation of an architectural project starting from 2 classic techniques in the development of a delivery: sketching—or volumetric schemes made by hand—and photographing physical models. See basic drawing, perspective, and photographic technique concepts.

Later, see how to edit both drawings and photographs in Adobe Photoshop under the criteria of graphic composition and using techniques such as painting, cropping, color saturation, contrast, textures, and filtering, among others.

Sergio and Germán show you how to import and edit a 2D plan in Photoshop and then in 3D, with an axonometric view and also in perspective. Work with different tools of this software such as importing objects (from other devices or scans) color hierarchy, partial transformation, valorization, composition, and order.

Finally, learn how to diagram the images previously worked on to create the final plate. See how to incorporate some principles of composition such as unity, tension, and color, to obtain an attractive sheet for the presentation of your architectural project.
