Yep to both comments. It did strike me as HIS IDEAL for humanity. Neat and hive-like with everybody going back to their “bee cells” when not strolling around work-less, and writing all those plays. No recognition of how work is a source of, not only threat to, meaning in life. As for recreation….no place for the guy in his pickup who wants to go…[Read more]

I’m glad that someone knows how everyone else wants to live. The part that is left out is that the people that have the money to truly do what they want to do might live there, but they’ll want their ocean front McMansion on Cape Cod, their ski chalet in Vermont, and their condo in a Florida golf course community as well. … that is what people…[Read more]

Thanks for taking the time to write all your messages. I’ll definitely check out that book. 🙂

Your looking at my old portfolio. Please look at the updated one. Thank you.http://issuu.com/akinadekile/docs/issuu3

I would remove the photo of yourself.  Its not a good one and your not applying for a model position.  I think its better to explain what programs you used to create the drawings.  If you have any built work you need to put that in. 

A book? Creating Freshwater Wetlands by Donald Hammer

An expert? Michael Ogden of http://www.biohabitats.com/

I cant seem to view your message. Did you say something?

J. Robert,
 
Brian learned from his dad as well. Perhaps you have heard of him – Mike Lin?

I like what you guys say, but I’d like to bounce on an idea J Robert just expressed :
“ when I see poor student presentation or autoCAD drawings…it makes me wonder HOW & WHY they were issued an LA degree”

Drawing is a fantastic skill, and having good graphics skills too. If you work on your own, or on a small team, it becomes critical because…[Read more]

james – thanks for sharing your comments… interesting! 

Henry:
 
A profoundly simple and powerful thought.
 
Imagine trying that time-worn and proven method first and then converting to a digitally expressive form of communication when idea is more worked out, has a bit of a luster and client buy-in.
 
What a concept.

Mr. Anthony:
The old fart music is playing in the background as I write this. Sage advice from an able and proven practicioner. I could not have stated it any better myself.
I have been away from this site for quite sometime, but may be making some impromptu, drive-by postings from time-to-time in the not so near future.
For now, praiseworthy…[Read more]

I have been using VW for 5 years. early on I used SU to flesh out concepts and use for basic presentation. After a year or two I dumped SU to perform all 3D work in VW. VW has become more intuitive in recent versions although still not as simple as SU.
I had to balance the time and found the translation from SU to VW too time consuming.

There was…[Read more]

… and Washington State.
 
I did my share to incinerate what I could some time ago and have a very hard time remembering believing that it is a cure all. It might, however, give rise to the notion that green walls will cure flooding and stop global warming …. “and it will cure your asthma, too”.
 
Poncho by Sears (someone will know the reference)

Sometimes it is hard to tell with the typing and all. I personally know people who pretty much think exactly the way you had typed. Plus a good portion of the State of Colorado.
 

I am pleased to have attention drawn to Tropical Hardwoods.
 
The United Nations (CITES) The Convention On The International Trade Of Endangered Species regulates what species are considered rare or endangered.
For those of you unfamiliar with the LACEY ACT, the U.S. Government implemented a federal law making it a federal crime to trade in…[Read more]

If my sarcasm is not coming through, I find the whole green roof/wall thing making a huge impact on the environment to be just as ridiculous as marijuana being a universal cure all (not saying it does not help a few things, just not all the things people are pretending it helps).
 
 
 

You would not want to consume anything grown on a roof or wall in a city. Who knows what is shoved into the fruits from what the plant pulls out of the air?

How long before medical marijuana and green walls are combined with a few tomatoes and we can finally get rid of engineers, drug companies, Super Walmarts, and Monsanto?
 
It is going to be interesting to see how history views some of these things in a few years.
