Hello,
I have recently moved from United States to Abu Dhabi and am searching for landscape and urban design jobs in UAE. I am particularly interested in urban ecological planning, however, my work experience ranges form small scale garden design to urban master plans. I invite you to see examples of my work and would appreciate any employment…[Read more]

I wouldn’t advise on turning up in UAE and expecting to get a job, there are a lot of people who are out of work. Please send through your CV to me and I’ll keep you informed of vacancies in the region hayley@architectural-elite.com

Hello Agnes Sophia! The best for you is to come to the UAE and look at the spot. Though that there is a lot of available professionals at the market seems that previous UAE or ME experience is critical. Be focused and persistent and certainly you will find something sooner or later. Good luck!

Hello, like few other persons I joined this group beacause I’m interested in working at UAE and maybe here is someone who could help me to find a contact there, give any sugestions where I should look for, or could recommended to me any company etc.
Thanks a lot 🙂

I’m really stumped on the whole photo match feature in SU. I have a project where I need to show a new streetscape design meshed with a photo of the existing street and I can’t for the life of me get photo match to work right. I have viewed several of the tutorial videos on YouTube but I am just not able to get the origin or the axis to come out…[Read more]

Daniel, I just got your book today, briefly looking through it I’m excited to work my way through it. I was surprised to see that the model that you used in the Sandbox Webinar was not in there. I’m assuming and hopefully there is another section in the book that covers the principles that you did in that webinar because I was not able to attend…[Read more]

Daniel,
Thanks for the fast response. It was very helpful. I looked through a lot of helpful plugins and ruby scripts that will be useful. I don’t know who Andrew is. So, I can’t contact him. On another note, what is the script/plugin that automatically fills in the space between CAD lines with plains?

BTW, I ordered your book & will get it soon.…[Read more]

QUESTION:
Can anyone tell me how I can view the webinars presented by Daniel Tal for Land8Lounge in July? I saw one of them and I want to watch it again. Also, Daniel gave a list of plug-ins that he recommends. That would be helpful.

I’m about to purchase a computer and trying to decide on a laptop. I want to run SketchUp to show progress on their projects. Anyone have a suggestion on the speed, graphic cards that I should use? I’m considering the I5 Mac Pro laptop. I’m also considering a desktop. Again, does anyone have a suggestion on the power and graphic card to use for…[Read more]

I think you need a plugin that you have to pay for if you have 3DS Max 2010 but I have a student version of 2011 and that does come with the capability to open a .skp file.

Sarayut, if you apply your materials, turn on the shadows to get the correct sun exposer, and place your rendering views in sketchup, save the file, you can open the model in 3DS Max you can press C and you will open a drop down menu that will direct you to pick one of the camera positions and then just render the view and everything will turn out…[Read more]

3D max is really cool but for the beginer like me might need some time to practice ,to me I looking for some thing that I can learn fast and the quality of the picture is similar to 3D max to explain my design, I also try MODO which is between SU and 3D max the problem is i need to convert the trees files from 3d max to Modo one by one ,so I give…[Read more]

Daniel- The image on the link is tremendous (with relative short render time as well). The plants look great.

I use Podium on a MAC. Although I like the results, residential clients are misdirected by the graphics and critique the plant textures instead of critiquing the design concepts.
I will continue to use Podium and adjust output settings until I have an appropriate solution for my design studies.

Another Rendering program that I have come to love is 3D Studio Max Design. You can set materials on the surfaces in sketchup along with camera positions and 3D Max will remember those when it brought into the program. Quality renderings and super easy to create quality renderings.

that’s cool thanks Daniel

welcome Sarayut
