Hi, Im Doug Patt and this is How to design like an architect. I thought the best way to talk about design would be to create a dream home for someone, but first, lets talk about the design process. An architect, like any design professional draws on a wellspring of information. How we design is based to some extent on what we know. What we know can be based on the school we went to, the books weve read, the magazines we like to look at, where we grew up, our friends and relatives, the …

And, why would you put the conical form on the ocean side of the roof? Doesn’t it block the ocean view from any roof deck living space?

thanks for your comments. What I find fascinating is though I make it very clear (in English) that this is an extremely limited view of design so many people find the need to address something that’s been made clear verbally and in writing in the video. Aesthetics aside, this is a condensed snapshot of the design process, not a tutorial. Keep em coming.

I think •I don ́t believe and don´t like Architecture-tutorials or something like that. Its a bad example of “contemporary architecture”.
•No se pueden tomar simplemente estos factores y meterlos en una licuadora y hacer de ello un proyecto. Eso es simplemente un mal ejemplo de un collage sin fundaciones.

• Ein schlechtes Beispiel, Architektur ist nicht einfach ein “Collage”. Diesen Prozess soll man lernen! und nicht in ein “Architektur-Tutorial” anschauen!.

I hate your project. If you nerd just steal a building of Le Corbusier why didn’t you take “La petite maison” which would make a lot more sense for kelly’s dreamhome. P.S. first of all lern to pronounce Le Corbusier and Unité d’Habitation. You are not an architect

Hi..i am from malaysia..and i am an architect. i ve been 6 years in this field and i found out that architecture is such a boring field. You have to listen to your boss when critics session, then your client. Nobody would listen to you until you become popular architect. I think architecture is suitable to work in the US.

I think i good videoo but its a reality the design process its a big process .
In the process the most important part is the searching… the investigation. Because it has all the elements you ll use in the design process.

I think that is only if you don’t have much expirience with the program you’re using. i generally “sketch” in sketchup, and go through various designs in a short amount of time, while getting the actual view of what my idea’s going to look like. guess it depends on how versatile you are with the means at your disposal.

I think thats dangerous
sketching by hand is much quicker and you can cycle through many ideas and thinka bout many things much quicker
jumping straight tp computer limits your opportunity because you get too precious about your one design

I recommend Sketchup pro in the design phase. One can start by sketching with pen and paper, but to get the ide into shape it is quickest and best to import the sketch into SU and work with it from there. You can then render a photo realistic picture of the projectto sell the idea.
