Description

Join us for a two-day exploration of 3D schematic design and presentation techniques in Vectorworks Landmark. This class is part of our Landmark Advanced Workflow Series, covering key processes for design production and output. These classes are designed to deliver an efficient workflow for the landscape design and landscape architecture professions.

Day 1 - Schematic 3D Design

In this class, you will learn how to take a 2D concept drawing into a 3D schematic design. You will grade a 3D site and utilize Vectorworks Landmark’s suite of tools and commands to achieve the desired outcome. Next, you will participate in a targeted discussion on graphics and textures to allow you to effortlessly achieve your desired look during this phase of the design process.

Day 2 - Presentation

After the schematic design process is complete, a cost analysis and presentation can be prepared. In this class, you will apply record formats and use built-in pricing tools to generate an estimated project cost. Then, you will move on to presentation output, creating 3D renders and utilizing Vectorworks Cloud Services to generate infographic presentation boards for printed output. In addition, you will also explore other presentation mediums, such as video walkthroughs and augmented reality, all available with Vectorworks Cloud Services and the Vectorworks Nomad app.

After completing this two-day class, you will have a proficient understanding of the schematic phase of the site design process and will be prepared for the design development phase of the design process.

Learning Objectives:

  • Utilize Vectorworks Landmark’s suite of 3D tools and commands to transform 2D geometric shapes into 3D schematic site designs.
  • Gain proficiency in site grading and manipulation.
  • Learn to create effective 3D textures and graphics for presentation output.
