These images have won the ASAI’s Architecture in Perspective.
The images have been produced in 3ds max.
They are the quality of images I would like to create with a lot of practice. There seems to be a growth in 3d visualization in Landscape Architecture practices. To me I think it is a great move forward in analyzing elements such as wind and sun, which effects site quality, and sometimes isn't always dealt with properly. However this software is capable of configuring settings to anticipate situations. Its great!!
My favorite is the last image, Eco buildings with rain.

Battersea Design

This was created in 3ds max. It took a while. It is from my Battersea design project. It is good to put some of my preliminary work, like the pool balls and the hand in to good use to visualize my actual design work. Great!!

3ds Max - Seating

This seating is known as 'peel up' seating. These were modeled in 3ds max. The shape and material was influenced from the Highline in New York.

3ds Max hand

3ds Max Pool Balls

This is a set of pool balls. This is one of the first things I have created in 3ds max. It took a while, using reflection maps and what not. Hopefully it will be worth it!

Vectorworks Landmark

"Vectorworks 2010 Landmark is the ultimate 2D/3D CAD solution developed byNemetschek, which has been developing software in the field of built environment design for over 20 years. More than 450,000 designers, architects, landscape architects, landscape planners, and engineers all over the world use Vectorworks."

The preferred previous Cad software was Autocad, there has been a shift as most architecture students, even at Kingston university are using Vectorworks as there main Cad software. After experimenting with Vectorworks, there seems to be a large palette of Landscape Architecture materials and objects/blocks.
