To understand the basics of architectural modeling
The best way to understand the basics of architectural modeling, is to see them in action. While the key concepts are simple, the same concepts are applicable to the largest projects. Some of the main ideas include:
- Setting up your workspace
- Extruding a 2D plan for height.
- Extruding a 2D elevation for thickness.
- Creating soft furniture with the Meshsmooth modifier.
- Building a street lamp with Bevel Profile modifier.
- Making cove molding by lofting a shape on a path.
- Designing cove molding with the Lathe modifier.
Just as a doctor would not start an operation without scrubbing up, you should not begin modeling without preparing your working file. You will set up a 3D file with some basic units and snap. Although this may be a basic operation to many of you, some people overlook these settings and struggle with inaccuracy in creating and placing objects, making these settings is a vital step in production.
Set the snap settings, and then save the file to be used as a prototype for future projects. Any settings you make in this prototype will automatically be loaded any time you open a new file or perform a File/Reset.
The file works similarly to AutoCAD prototype files, except you can have only one prototype in different 3D programs. You could have files on your hard drive with various settings but no mesh objects and simply open them, then Save As a new working file.
The prototype's settings provide the much needed precision for architectural modeling: Using the proper Units settings and Grid Spacing enables you to create 2D or 3D models that are accurate to the nearest 1/100 of an inch. If you are comfortable with Unit Settings, Grid Spacing, and prototypes, feel free to skip this exercise and move on to the next section.
