Design to me ...

Design covers all aspects of life. It is problem solving and creating; it is something that has an effect on everything. Spatial design influences people’s feelings, moods and much more. It connects to everything in some small way. Connections are what create concepts. They provide links to design something new and unique. They provide influences and this in turn develops into inspiration for better things.

Work Placement

Throughout the summer I have been working at Machin Associates a firm of Architects in Alloa. It has been very beneficial for me and has given me a whole new set of skills. I now understand how to use auto cad much better and have learned how to render in auto cad whereas before I would have done it in Photoshop. I have also improved my speed in creating visuals. I have learned new tools in Sketch up and now know how to use a rendering package called Atlantis. Furthermore I have been able to see the relationship between the architect and client. Whilst at my placement I have realised it is about speed as well as quality. Time is money within a business!
