Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

This unique guide demonstrates how CAD can be an indispensable tool throughout the entire creative design process. It offers novice and experienced CAD users a working understanding of 2D and 3D computer graphics within the context of design issues and principles. One primary feature of this book is its integration of several software applications, highlighting AutoDesk and Adobe products. Its focus, however, is on the way CAD enables you and your clients to visualize built environments, explore alternative ideas, and revise design solutions before construction begins. Case studies and hands-on tutorials aid readers in developing accurate 3D digital models ... creating new color palettes ... studying dynamic behaviors of light ... exploring materiality of 3D form ... animating ideas ... and simulating special environmental conditions.

Reseña del editor

In this much-needed guide, authors Dong and Gibson show that computer-aided design can do more than simply assist in production tasks. They reveal that digital graphics, by enabling the user to create a virtual, three-dimensional world, is actually a marvelous tool for creating and manipulating designs. With superb illustrations and clear explanations, the authors open the reader's eyes to the magic of computer graphics. Architects and designers of all levels will discover digital graphics' powerful capabilities, learning how to: -- Simulate the changes of daylight in an interior-- Create virtual environments to "walk" through-- "Inhabit" the built environment as the client would experience it-- See in advance how a design will look in realityDigital Graphics for Architectural and Interior Visualization covers theoretical concepts, technical information, and creative case studies using a variety of software packages, including AutoCAD, 3D Studio, Form Z, Animator Pro, Photoshop, CorelDraw with an emphasis on AutoDesk products throughout.
