sorry Eric but the item is not available in my country, my apologies i wanted to support you in a more direct way, i'll be always watching and liking your videos for now
i guess Im randomly asking but does anyone know of a method to log back into an Instagram account? I was stupid lost my password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me.
Pooping Buffalo I have a few PhD Architecture professors. They went to college, got their master's and their doctorate. But most have up to a master's. It's not that hard to continue education here in Brazil. It's common.
Catarina Queiroz That's super interesting. I had no idea. I'm in the United States. From what I remember in college only one university in Hawaii offers a doctorate. I was actually calling my teacher in arch studio1 professor until he told me otherwise
Pooping Buffalo It is! The Federal University is free! Actually we pay high taxes. But the basics of a developed country should be good education, right? I hope we get there someday. And if you score high enough in your Master's or Doctor's application test you can receive a scholarship and get paid to study! I don't know if foreign students can too. My husband is studying for his doctor's on a full scholarship. He can focus more on the research if he doesn't have to worry so much about how to pay the bills. :)
Actually I´m still at Highschool (in Germany) and its my dream to become an Architect. So I found your channel and I love it. I can learn so much for sketching and modelling. It makes me happy everytime doing architectual stuff and you helped me improving my skills. Thank you!
I love the fact that most of your videos speak about general architecture concepts that helps students like me build my own criteria. Greetings from Mexico
I’m in my first year of architecture and my teachers aren’t really helpful, but thanks to your video i understand everything they told me better, thank you and i hope everything goes well for you
I am a sixty year old architect and I am still learning and evolving in my profession and my understanding of architecture and life. Studying and working in architecture is a challenge but it is also an immense joy and satisfaction and I never regret it. Your videos are essential to understanding and improving one's approach to improving ones skills and building a mindframe of an architect. I know that each of us embarks on this fantastic voyage alone and it is essential to have access to lessons that teach us the realities and skills to progress and succeed in architecture. Your videos are elegant, professional, and demonstrate the high standards and satisfactions each of us must achieve.
Thank you. After almost 15 years without practising architecture, I practically have to start over and refresh my memory to get back in the business. Your channel is most useful, I'm glad I found it.
Great material Eric! I'm finishing now last year of Architecture School, your videos encourage me to never stop beleiving that being an architect with creative and outside-of-the-box vision is possible in real life!. I love your channel, love how you simply explain many aspects of something so complex as our profession. I'm devouring the material you produce and plan to continue doing it! Please don't stop! Greatings from Colombia. God bless and _Cheers_
As a second year architecture student, I find this video pretty interesting. I don't really find any professor in my university telling the students about this, just plain lessons. Thank you so much for the video
Real architecture have only let say 5-10% of it. You should really try to get real experience in architectural office before make decision about your future, if you want to draw consider maybe graphic design study... regards and good luck
I've always wanted to be an architect and I will start studying architecture this fall. Thanks for sharing your ideas in such great, informative videos!
From a non-architect/design point of view, I really enjoyed this video. The drawings were great and it was interesting to take a 'behind the scenes look' at how they are created. Thanks!
Two things: Interesting use of red text. Normally I reserve red text for when I'm red lining a drawing, but admittedly I find the red text pleasing to the eye. I may adjust a drawing to see how it turns out. Second point. While I now use Chief Architect for my drawings, I used LT for years and still have it on my computer because I just love controlling my drawings to that point. I could have dumped LT, but the control freak in me keeps it around for special projects. CA is so automated it sometimes takes the fun out of the whole creative process, rather than add to it. Good video serious. Keep up the great work.
This may sound absolutely ridiculous, but when I was in architecture school, I could not "think" on canary yellow trace. It was required at our school at Drexel University. I would design on white trace, and then present my drawings on canary. The teachers never knew I did this. I had SUCH a mind block looking at yellow, but with white, my ideas would just flow. Back when I was in school, the internet didn't even exist. There is SUCH a wealth of information out there. I'm teaching middle schoolers Intro to Architectural now, and your videos are inspiring. Keep them up!
I know I'm late but this video is is the cliff notes version of my 1st and 2nd year of classes at a private university. This channel is doing incredible things.
I really like that you try to reply to every single comment on all of your videos. Thank you, I have learned so much from them! You are an inspiration.
cheers my friend...i'm so appreciative of the kind words and support of viewers...this channel wouldn't be what it is today with you...replying is a small thank you! cheers...
You are very detail when you explained and gave us some ideas, and what most i needed is how to operate my hand, arm to move and work with the tools making lines or circles...for this i can more improve my drawings skills...thank you so much, Have a good one
In my first week in architecture and our professor tasked us for a major plate and i have no complete knowledge on how to sketch a plan so glad i found this video
If its because of drawing, dont, its so much more than drawing, maths,physics, geodesy and so much more, half of the time thats harder than drawing itself so make your choice wisely and when you are ready make the decision
I've never seen such a well-crafted architecture channel! From the quality of the video and the content to the description, everything is amazing! Hugs from Brazil.
im a 17 year old who's really confused to what course ill study this college. I have always dreamt of being an architect since i was young and somehow i kind alost interest about it. But now , that I found your channel , im kinfa getting a rekindled passion towards architecture. Thanks to you sir! Godbless! Much support from Philippines!
I've been watching your videos, and I've just gone for a drive into a new estate and my eyes are constantly looking at the architecture of buildings now! It's so fun to have a new perspective, I thank you for that!
Legit real fan of yours my friend. you are such a great instructor, everytime i got home from school i always rush to your channel and study stuffs you share it does way more knowledgeable and cooler than at school. i hope you continue to spread your skills at this field. it really helps me a lot! Thank you! A big Cheers from Philippines!
This is one of the best videos of yours that I have watched and got informed simply and obviously.I am almost graduating but no body thought me these things, wish I knew these tips right from first year.Very grateful to associate my time with this channel. From West Africa(Nigerian) studying in East Africa (Uganda)
You got me thinking . . . I had always believed that there was only one correct way to do architectural drawings, now, it seems, emphasise the main points and create a hierarchy of less important and then dimensional line weight. Thank you
Great topic and video! In 12 minute you displayed more info and skills about technical drawings than some of my professors in a semester :) Please keep it producing and share with us the good work that you are doing. Thank you !
I was very assured that this video wont teach me anything, but it concretize all the mess in my head relate to sketching, now I definitely know what and how am I doing THANKS !
You are so inspiring. Even the tonality of your voice make me structure my thinking and learning process. I became more confident and calm. Thank you, Eric.
Graduated 1966 in Architecture and it is refreshing to see your videos doing it the "old fashioned way", ....Freehand Sketches. I have always considered this the most basic tool every Architecture student has to learn and not to be too dependent on computers. Though I use Autocad, I still resort back to sketches like you do whenever meeting clients. Thank you for these very essential tips.
Just the right video I was searching for. Many thanks for the quality of work and amount of information you are feeding us. Thanks from a student of yours from Pakistan :)
thanks +Calvin Rogers...glad I could swoop in...only back on the grid for a few days before heading out of the country, wanted to squeeze this one in...
Wonderful video! I am a first year college architecture student at Chicago and so far this video and "30x40 Design Workshop" has worked miracles for my studio class! No I am one step closer to achieving my dream. It has been quite a journey for me :) Thank you for this wonderful lessons! I really appreciate your help!
Harold Washington College. They don't show these techniques, yet professors are very helpful. Mostly some of the sketching classes relay on intuition and the sketching you are comfortable with. Thanks again :)
im 17 and i wanna be an architect later. Im trying to start early so it would be easier when i study it. Your videos has helped me alot! Also it made me enjoy drawing
I recently discovered your channel and your books. These kind of books I`ve been searching for a few time. I own my own design practice in my place, Acapulco, Mex. and I`ve been searching for a useful information about how to manage an architecture studio. From now and then, I am a loyal fan of your channel and your videos and I am going to buy your physical books, Eric. Congratulations for all that useful stuff you create for us and go for it. Greetings from México.
You know I just started some of your videos today, Im still a high school student from spain, I want to be an Chef, Flight attendant, Painter or a fashion designer yet I have no inspirations. Neither my mom's a chef, she cannot be my inspiration. My dad told me if I still cant decide,I should choose Architectural. Actually, Architectural never crossed my mind,but my father. I saw your first video your short film,and hell yes! That one inspired me, When I was at my first year in highschool I developed that Im good at drawing and creating it. Im bad at maths,but since Im that person who struggles a lot but still to choose to do it,im that kind of a person AHHAHA. My mom told me that painting can be my side job. I thought that it is so impossible and than I saw u doing editing, and then ur main work on the afternoon,now u r one of my inspiration. Thank you so muchhh! Im just a new subscriber EHEHEHEHHE THANK YOU SO MUCH💗💜💙🧡💛💛❤💕💖💘💝💞💟❣💌 Im not a nerdy,but since I think I need that, AHHAHAH I will 😂
I dreamt of becoming an architect since I was 10 years old. And finally, after 11 years I'm going to university to study architecture. I'm soooo.. excited!
Muy, INTERESANTE el video....me recordaste mis tiempos jóvenes de mi profesión aquí en el Perú-Cusco. Yo, dibujo a Mano alzada como se dice... me gusta bastante este tipo de DISEÑOS al estilo CLÁSICO !!!!... Excelente, excelente.... Yo, particularmente opino que un arquitecto de verdad, debe dibujar como lo hace el presentador (arquitecto) de este video.
Thanks, too many students do not understand the importance of line weight. Not just sketching but equally important in CAD drawings. I began pushing pencils in the late '70s so in transitioning to CAD, I've always been anal requiring the same look.
Thank you for this video, I'm an 5th year Architecture student and this tips takes me back from the tracing paper up to the design processes. I love also, that how you draw those wavy lines and for me this is excellent.
This is something else....what clarity of thaughts man...awesome..BTW this comment of mine is coming from your interior design video. Kindly make a video on setting priorities while designing and developing clarity and critical thinking. This is so so helpful...can't thank you more... This is such a noble thing that you are doing. God bless you
Hi Eric, I've been watching your videos for quite some time; I found them so inspiring that I am now coursing my second year of Architecture school. Your videos are not just great lessons in architecture. They are also great lessons in storytelling, film making and presentation! Thank you for your generosity and dedication in sharing your knowledge and insight into so many interesting topics
after 47 years of drawing, i very rarely sketch, i scribble. I scribble good enough to get my idea where I can go right to cad. There are two of us and we did 250 projects last year. One thing I have learned, buildings today do not last forever. Another local architect designed 3 buildings for a new start up bank. He spent a lot of time with the design and was meticulous with all of the details and selected a beautiful brick. The bank was sold and the first thing the new bank did was add these stupid decals with different sized dots. The bank was sold again and the new bank painted the brick tan and brown, and added awnings. There you have it.
I am not an architect, but rather I am an artist. Nevertheless, I find your channel of great value. Something that has puzzled me for some time is the math behind foreshortening. I know for instance if a beam points mostly straight at the viewer, the end facing the viewer will appear out of perspectively large. I also understand that because this is something that occurs in a photograph, it must have a mathematical formula that explains it. I think that this would be of great help not only to me as an artist, but to architects as well. Anyone striving for a realistic representation of a concept drawing could benefit from this. Therefore, I respectfully request that you make a show on the algorithms of foreshortening.
Hey, i study architecture in Germany and : ,, all the german stuff „ really made me laugh! You‘ve just shown me what it’s really about lines and all the „smallest“ things we use to transfer sth in this passion. Thanks for reminding me of that, i almost forgot to have that in mind when i work on a Design.
all your videos are so so helpful! I am 16 and interested in architecture so I have started working on my university portfolio application! made my first concept designs for a garden house in my sketchbook! thank you so much!
thanks i am a 1st year student at Ravensbourne University London I just started studying architecture last month as i transferred after my first term in illustration so i am doing self study of the 10 weeks work at home due to corona so your videos are helping a lot.Thank you :)
You explained it in such great details, I really can't wait to get the items needed to start drawing😍😍😍😍. I've always been interested in drawing houses and interested in making my own floor plans,but I never take any architecture class at all so I didn't know how to draw properly, everything looks the same, because I only use 1 pensil/ pen with the same intensity when pulling it( drawing) so everything looks 2D only😥😥. Now that I've watched your video,it gives me a much better understanding on how to create 3 D design by differentiating the intensity of the pencil used. Thank you so much for sharing this video,I really appreciate what you've done,you have no idea how much this means to me 😇😇😇
Eric another Great Video, I have a very similar style and process to you but of late found it hard to translate this to the young members of staff in my small practice, they only like to draw in one line weight. (White 0 DRIVES ME NUTS and i send it back to them to change) because like you say "what is important" and what are you trying to describe to your client without you being there. I'm going to share this with them and set a challenge to see how close they can get to this type of style its never been about time as i still see it as art however they see it as a job which worries me for the future of architecture.
Couldn't agree more +Barry Stott-Brookes...this one is kind of a personal crusade of mine, glad to have you on board! So tired of seeing single line weight drawings. This is a craft, right? Cheers...
Oh God I have the exact same pentel pencil like, same, same. I broke that bottom part too. Wishing I cold be as good as you, though. Anywayy thank you for your videos! Finally someone on the internet could help me with everything related with architecture. I'm currently on a project to design an Urban Villa (this semester's final studio project in uni) and in three weeks I'll do the dispaly for my design but I still got a lot to do (I'm still working on the floor plan). Good luck to you!
