This course is designed to teach you the skills necessary to create detailed and engaging architectural illustrations. You’ll start by importing your base drawings into Photoshop and then apply graphic techniques that enhance the design narrative, such as textures for materials, lighting to highlight key elements, and human figures or landscape elements to provide context. These techniques will help you transform standard architecture views into visual representations that communicate design intent clearly and compellingly.
By the end of this course, you will have the tools to create highly polished, illustrative architectural views that merge technical accuracy with artistic presentation. Whether you’re preparing for a client presentation or enhancing your portfolio, this course will help you elevate your design communication.
