Modern House Design

Beautiful modern house designs. After looking around, I learned — “house design” is such a huge subject that you could spend the rest of your days examining the issue. Most people are limited by what they are exposed to in a bit of a drive or in school. I have extensive experience in many aspects of real estate and have traveled extensively. You can look at a house archaically and attempt to adapt the look of a Mongolian Yurt to (NYC if not the materials,) but you can also look at a house functionally. Functionally, current issues suggest you ask where or how you will supply the energy for the house. Historically when Thomas Jefferson designed Monticello he was asking what was happening in each room and how each room would be supplied with what was needed (firewood for fuel, food, etc. ) He resolved that the functional aspects should not compete with the aesthetic aspects and designed a long below grade supply tunnel below the house. You may not have slaves to supply your needs, but even today we try to design to minimize work for the owners. This is one reason that the modern trend is to put laundry’s near bedrooms rather than basements or off a kitchen which would be more convenient for plumbing issues. A more modern design might tend to capitalize on vistas and orientation to enjoy views and capture as much natural sunlight and heat as possible. In America, a newer home that required heat is more likely to install radiant floor heating that is Integral to the design, energy saving, and more comfortable, than any tack on duct work or radiators. In general I would suggest you try to list design elements you would like to include as a start before you get carried away by a glossy picture or something that simply looks good on paper. A house design can work with your lifestyle or be a pain to live in. There are a sampling of sites below:

Which of these three do you suggest a girl to study in College and why? Thank you all for your help. i really need everyone’s help in this, so thanks for those who helped and I want others to help too . . Thank you. After looking around, I learned — architecture – design and planning of structures, it is somewhat a mixture of fine arts and engineering, there’s a considerable amount of technicality in it, but it is a very interesting course. interior design focuses on furnishing styles putting some psychological aspects on it, it is more realted to fashion industry. graphic design is the most basic, the above two fields already cover this, but majoring on this will give you a wide range of easy jobs to choose, like advertising, industrial design, textile design or even software related renderring job. personally, I would suggest you to take up interior design because most girls excell on this field. Ok. Good luck.


History About Architecture

Compare the history of architecture during the 19th century and the 20th century. What was significant for each time? What developed from the 19th century to the 20th century? How did architecture change/develope during this time? Who were the most important architectus during this time? Anything else to think about according to tradition and function. I think I found an answer. 20th century architectural movements include: modernism, postmodernism, the international style embrace the “form follows function” principle, rejecting precious detailed and artistic architecture like that of Gaudy and Art Nouveau of the 19th century. It is less decorative and more functional. •Modernist architecture mirrored the cubist movement in art. •Bauhaus : Modernism’s most important school of architecture & applied art. -founded by Walter Gropius (1883 – 1969) -German -The Bauhaus incorporated the technology of the machine age with the purest principles of functional design. – Embrace functionality and simplicity in design. •The Bauhaus launched the International Style in architecture. – Resembled a Mondrian painting. I’mportant architects and their works: • Frank Lloyd Wright (1869-1959) -leading figure in early modern architecture. -combined the new technology of steel and glass – integrates the aesthetic principles of Oriental/Japanese architecture: principle of horizontality, low ceilings, interconnecting interior and exterior space respecting the relationship between setting and structure. – used the cantilever technique : a horizontal beam supported at only one end and projecting well beyond the point of support. – rejected decorative details – materials used : brick, glass, and natural rock. -“To use any material wrongly is to abuse the integrity of the whole design. ” -FALLINGWATER, designed in 1936. – The GUGGENHEIM Museum, late 1950’s. Le Corbusier 1887 – 1965 – Swiss architect – likes efficiency of design – promotes low-cost housing embracing architecture with the spirit of mass-production. – “the house is a machine for living. ” • I.

Modern Architectural Design

Ok so I just finished my first year in college, and when I look into my study plan I have to take “architectural design studio 1 &2” in order to graduate. . The thing is I’m not good at drawing, yes I am good with digital things like 3dsmax and AutoCAD but hand drawing I do enjoy it but it’s not good at all, most of my colleagues are like pros and good. . So I was just wondering and asking all the architects out there. . Do you think I will even pass this class? I mean I would try my absolute best, but I know I’m not good at it like the others are and all the professors are hard at analysis and grading . . I was happy to learn… Architectural design studio 1 (BARCH) AutoCad is type of drawing philosophy required, you want to look at course outline, and understand that the drawing is still technical, you can implement aesthetics to project design once you have overall design set out for building or constructing, architectural or mechanical drafting is better in any ways than digital, but not as fast or convent, no matter what lies ahead, you are already moving forward with education and goals in design, the whole of course is from the ground up, drawing, modeling, constructing, management, it will be your concentration on course itself, not social life out side of colleagues and other students in course, remind yourself often why you are on this path, and don’t get caught up in other distractions until course is complete, ____________ .

Modern Style Architecture

Any advice on architecture?? What qualifications I need??. . I don’t really know much about it. From what I can tell… Architecture rocks. You’ll probably want to be good at both art and math, but if you love one and can tolerate the other, then you should be in good shape. Most students coming from high school into college have little or no experience with architecture, so don’t worry if you don’t have specific qualifications. Just a clear creative ability and/or strong test scores–depending on the school, you’ll need one or the other or both. I would say, start checking out the portfolios available on school websites and see if it looks exciting. Architecture school is a great start for a lot of careers other than buildings, too–Furniture design, web design. . Pixar recruited at our school this yr for 3D film animation. An instructor of mine did spacial planning and weight distribution on cargo ships for the Navy. I have a friend whoever is now working for Disney as an I’magineer.

Modern House Architects

More importantly: is it better to work for someone or myself? And how do they get paid exactly. Well, I have your answer. For a residential designer (non-licensed individual), their fees start at $1/sf to around $5/sf. Architects usually ask for around $8/sf and up. It depends on how bad the person want/need the job and how big the job is. The smaller the job, the higher the rate/sf since the designer will lose money if he charges a client $1000 for a 1000 sf remodel. Like everything else, there are pros and cons working for yourself or for someone else. Working for someone else: Pros- steady income, focus on singular task, lack of liability, employment benefits. Cons- working for someone else instead of taking all the money and credit for yourself. Working for yourself: Pros- taking all the money and credit for yourself, creative license, tax benefits. Cons- finding work, time management to run office, work and family life, getting clients to pay, full liability. You really have to give yourself a fair assessment of your ability or inability. How are you going to get the work? Believe me, it’s tough getting a business started and getting clients to pay on time. Being on your own is not for everyone, I have many friends who tried it and failed. But if you make it, it is definitely rewarding.

Modern Brazilian Music

. Well, I have your answer. Hermeto Pascoal (born June 22, 1936) is a Brazilian composer and multi-instrumentalist. He was born in Lagoa da Canoa, Alagoas, Brazil. [1] Pascoal is a greatly beloved musical figure in the history of Brazilian music, known for his abilities at orchestration and improvisation, as well as being a record producer and contributor to many other Brazilian and international albums. Pascoal comes from a remote corner of northeastern Brazil, an area that lacked electricity at the time he was born. He learned the accordion from his father and practiced for hours indoors as, being albino, he was incapable of working in the fields with the rest of his family. [2] Hermeto’s career began in 1964 with appearances on several Brazilian recordings alongside relatively unknown groups. These now-classic albums and the musicians involved (Edu Lobo, Elis Regina, Cesar Camargo Mariano) established widely influential new directions in post-bossa Brazilian jazz. In 1966, he played in the Sambrasa Trio, with Airto Moreira and Humberto Clayber; they released only one album, Em Som Maior. Then he joined Trio Novo (Airto Moreira, Heraldo do Monte, Theo de Barros) and in 1966 the group, renamed Quarteto Novo, released an album that launched the careers of Pascoal and Moreira. [3] Pascoal would then go on to join the multi-faceted group Brazilian Octopus. He initially caught the international public’s attention with an appearance on Miles Davis’s 1971 album Live-Evil, which featured Pascoal on several pieces (which he also composed). [2] Davis has said that Pascoal was “the most impressive musician in the world”. Later collaborations involved fellow Brazilian musicians Airto Moreira and Flora Purim. From the late 1970s onward he mostly led his own groups, playing at many prestigious venues, such as the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1979. Other members of the group have included bassist Itibere Zwarg, pianist Jovino Santos-Neto and percussionists Nene, Pernambuco and Zabele. Known as o Bruxo (the Sorcerer), Hermeto often makes music with unconventional objects such as teapots, children’s toys, and animals, as well as keyboards, button accordion, melodica, saxophone, guitar, flute, voice, various brass and folkloric instruments. [2] Perhaps because he grew up in the countryside, he uses nature as a basis for his compositions, as in his Música da Lagoa, in which the musicians burble water and play flutes while immersed in a lagoon: a Brazilian television broadcast from 1999 showed him soloing at one point by singing into a cup with his mouth partially submerged in water. Folk music from rural Brazil is another important influence in his work. [2] Between 1996 and 1997, Hermeto surprised the musical world with a book project, Calendário do Som, which contains a song for all day of the year, including 29 February, so that everyone would have a song for his or her birthday. [2] He and his wife Aline Morena currently live in her hometown, Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil.

Architecture In Portugal

. Today I found out that… I honestly do not get your question. WHAT do you wanna know about the architecture? But I’ll try to answer it anyway, sorry if I didn’t let you know what you wanted to know. In former times, the Arab empire had stretched as far as into Spain and Portugal. Some of their work has remained; for example, ‘Portugal’ comes from the arab word ‘orange’. And until now their influence remained in forms of architecture, street names, names of places etc.

Mainly in Portugal Santiago de Compostela in Spain、 Guimarães,Tomar, Batalha,Mosteiro de Santa Maria,Mosteiro dos Jerَnimos,in Portugal.


Church Modern Design

I’ve to design a church for design class. . And i’m planning to design a church with waterfalls outside. . But it would ba a modern type of “waterfalls” since I want the church to look modern. . Is it a good idea?. . Does anyone have any other suggestions on what I must put to beautify the church?. . Please help me. . Thanks. What I found out was – You should take a look at a church in japan (on the Internet) I forget the architects name but he designed a church very modern clean lines with waterfalls and also he used light as a very important feature. He used sunlight and the path of the sun to help him with his design. He placed this cross shaped window here so during Sundays service, during a prayer the sun would come up and start to shine through really amazing take a look: The architects name is Tadao Ando.

Architecture Office Design Ideas

Hey, I am currently in my last yr of Secondary School and am attempting an Advanced Higher Architecture project. I need to come up with research examples into my project, how my own ideas develop and possibly multiple outcomes. I am designing a main office headquarters for a major oil company to be situated in Aberdeen (Hypothetically obviously). I have been struggling however to gather more research. My own design is going to be a modern building and my two major architects for influence have been Norman Foster and Richard Rogers. I really need any further examples of existing buildings that have the same purpose as mine (Offices, preferably for a company in the oil industry) however that have interesting architectural properties. Could anyone give me any suggestions? Also any tips at all for my project commonly would me much appreciated. Thanks to all who reply . Basically… The Journal of Architecture. real research not websites is the key. If this for a course you are taking through a college then library resources to online journals should be available to you. Other wise it depends on where you live for example in high school I had access to WISCAT (Wisconsin catalog) your secondary school will have the same thing with a different name, ask a librarian. If you still find yourself at odds search google books for things like Norman Foster etc, and you can find any of your research on the book preview and then just cite the info as if you had the actual book. good luck.


Modern Architecture Architects

I’m in high school and im planning on becoming an architect, I don’t no a lot about it and im still trying to choose between it and medical school. I know its very early but I want to decide now. If I go into medical school its not because I love it its because of the money and stability. But I love architecture designing buildings and homes with new tech. It just is something I really want to do. so I need to know about architecture the amount of money you can make in first 5 years on the job and after that. Also just about it in general what kinds of things do you do. What types of classes do I take in undergraduate school. Another thing is what do I have to know before I even start school. Should I take any classes in high school. because I havnt taken any art classes and I was wondering if it could help. After looking around, I learned — I tell all young people to place themselves in the best position for success in any given field based on what they’re good at and not for the economic benefits. I am not a believer of of the adage, “you can become whatever you want if you put your mind to it”. For each and everyone of us, we are good at some things and not so good in others, it’s just a fact of life. Medicine and Architecture is so different, you’re more likely to find success in either field but not both. If you seek money, architecture is not for you. During your first five years in this economy, you would be lucky to get a job. If you do land a job, do not be surprised if it’s only for $36k/year working 70-80 hours/week. If you don’t work those hours, your likelihood for success in the office and passing the Architectural Registration Exam is slim. Keep in mind that in any given office, there is a person assigned to do the design work. It will be a tough climb to be a designer in a firm. During the first two years, you can expect to answer phones, file paper work, work on CAD stations, and run errands. If you work the overtime (pay your dues), then the next three years you may get to work with consultants and run projects to the city. There really isn’t anything you take in high school that can help you in the architecture program since they teach you those aspects there. What you need to concentrate on is to boost up your GPA and your SAT score so you get accepted.

Contemporary Residential Architects

I have a major project due later on in the term, and in my project I have a large residential housing which is positioned on a main street, and I love the contemporary look, so I have placed a fair few windows, but I want there to be privacy for the residents. This style of glass can be seen in many skyscrapers in major cities, they allow low visibility to the interior from the exterior. I was happy to learn… You may be thinking of frosted glass. This from wikipedia on frosted glass: Frosted glass is produced by the sandblasting or acid etching of clear sheet glass. It has the effect of rendering the glass translucent by scattering of light during transmission, thus blurring images view while still transmitting light. Applications: To obtain visual privacy while admitting light.


Design A Church

What would be important? Actually I believe in Spirituality. . And not organized religion, but in asking this question, let’s find out what beliefs you think are necessary to create a spiritual minded group of individuals. What important Biblical truths would be a part of this church? Would there be a “leader”? Would the individuals be Baptized? Sprinkling or immersion? What beliefs concerning the Trinity would there be? What beliefs about “Hell” would there be? Who would be God’s special group of people? Is Jesus the head of the church? Any other doctines that seem necessary to be a part of this group? There’s so many ideas, ( not necessarily in agreement ) out there, about religions or churches. . So I wonder what we would want, if we could start our own group? “Cam51Sec” I love it. It sounds like a great church. I think you’ve hit on something. It would be right in line with what God wants for us, and people would want to attend and there would be lots of LOVE. Today I found out that… My church would be ever evolving,no regimented pulpits,no Sunday morning times to be awaken early on what maybe your only day off,it would be a sunset service out in the open air with tall trees surrounding us as we listened to our children play and our elderly grandparents share with us stories and blessing us with thier child-like faith,as we all felt how truly blessed and cared for by an omnipotent God in the Great void of space and time reaching us,small as we were to him/her. It would be a church that revelled in Families,all sorts gathering to support one another and preparing each other to face another work week with up-lifting comments,poetry and relevant texts,quotes from thos who once tred here such as Winston Churchill,or Martin Luther King jr. ,or Robert Frost something without angst or reprisals for what we are not but for the greater truth of all our lives together,family,friends and helpers. The Church would be full of kindness and loving Men and Women who could find renewel as such with one another and thus be said to “have Love one towards another” a foundation of which our children and grandchildren would carry-over to thier own bright futures. We could sit and speak openly about Our Love for Our father/mother creator God amongst one another without fear or being misunderstood and each one would feel they had been heard,our hymns would be the listening to each other and the swells of nightfall coming,insects buzzing and the snap of a small fire burning in the center of our circle,each realising Family means anyone can be family and that the body of our church consists of us its members. That Christ did as much when He was here as he simply sat at a simple dinner in an upper room,church is not four walls and a floor its Human and alive,our church would never be dead with dogma or rituals those are manmade precepts and horrific mind-killers. God gave us minds,choices and instincts for our goodness to flow out through mostly all aspect of our living days.

Free Brazilian Music

I have to do a project on Brazil, and I was wondering, what do Brazilians like to do in their free time? Not necessarily just teens, but adults as well. What kind of music is popular? What kind of movies are popular? Things like that. What I found out was – Things Brazilians like to do in their free time Top 5 – Teens. 1. Go to the Mall 2. Go to the Beach 3. Parties 4. Listen to Music 5. Go to the movies Top 5 – Young adults. 1. Parties 2. Go to the Beach 3. Traveling 4. Listen to Music 5. Go to the movies / reading Most of Brazilians like international music, American bands or singers. I mean, Brazilian teenagers are not very different from American teenagers, they like the same kind of music and they watch the same kind of movies/tv series. I hope it helps.

Architects In

I have spoken to a lot of engineers and though their words were different, they all seemed to have the same ‘architects are stupid’ mentality. Even my own father, a civil engineer, dislikes them. He especially hates that I chose architecture as my major. Well, I have your answer. Architects are essentially artists that specialize in designing buildings. Architects don’t have to take Calculus I, Calculus II, Calculus III, Differential Equations, Mechanics and Materials, Thermodynamics, Steel Design, etc. Basically, an architect comes up with a ridiculous, fanciful, and perhaps good-looking design, and then some poor civil engineer has to figure out how to build it so it doesn’t collapse and kill people, while staying inside the paltry budget handed down from the financiers. This is why engineers hate architects.

Architectural Office Design Ideas

Heya everyone, I am designing a cooperate office building in a city center location for my final year project. It needs to be a environmentally friendly building. I was wondering if you guys know of any books or websites that are good for ideas. E. G. How to go about designing a building and what factors to look at and what shape to choose. Also book website that does through example existing of office/other buildings and why they were design the way they were so I can build up ideas from them. I’ve been looking through website and kind find great pictures but no descriptions of why it was design like that. I’m not a pure Architecture student so I probably lacking on some of the fundamental knowledge. I need to design, the external, internal architectural design and also the structural design. Any recommendation will be helpful. Thanks. Essentially — here, take a look at these links, there are some great projects and, although there might not be as much detail as you would like, you can always contact them and you might get some additional material. hey, if you want a really cool concept, have a look at some of the material online about biomimicry in building design, you may get some inspiration (the last two links relate to this but there’s loads more). Anyway, very exciting and worthwhile project, I wish you well with this and sincerely hope that something amongst this lot proves useful. If you want, let me know how you get on edit: my goodness me.. I forgot to include this website which is really good: and, check out this homeostatic facade system self-shading system for buildings here:


Interior Architecture Design

I m interested in interior design, but will it be better if I major in architecture? Whats the difference between a B. Arch and a B. A degree in architecture?? Which universities have good undergraduate program in architecture?? UC schools, USC, Parson, Pratt??? Please help. After looking around, I learned — I just finished the Masters of Architecture program at Boston Architecture college. not a bad school, you work while you go to school so it is a lot of work. Interior design is just architecture of interiors. You need just as much math, science and style to do both. A B. Arch means it is an accredited program and you will be able to take the registration exam when you finish. A BA degree in architecture means that you will have to complete a masters degree before you can sit for the registration exam. Some states have an interior design registration exam too, so if that is what you’re interested in, then you should pursue ID. Good luck. It is a challenging field.

French Architecture Design

I want to study interior design and architecture in my future. Right now I am taking the IB diploma (highschool) with math, art and english A1 higher, then physics, french B and economics standard one thing I want to know is will my classes suffice to get into a good school for those things. Also, if I am going to study those things, should I do a ‘safty’ degree first, like advertising and marketing? also, are there a lot of interior design career opportunities in Toronto? Thanks. Well, I have your answer right here. 1. Do a search for “interior design degree programs” or “interior architecture degree programs” online.

2. After you find some colleges with these programs, get on their websites and look up that degree program and the entrance requirements for it. Here in Oregon, t the U of O, they offer both programs and I believe they are 5 year programs. You can consider a minor in advertising alongside of the interior design degrees, but I would imagine that you are required to take courses in those subjects as part of your core requirements anyways. Also, I believe at UO, not only do you have to apply to the general school itself, but also to the specific program because it is a 5 year program. So this is something to consider. . Make sure you know exactly what you need to do to apply. I would think taking some art classes would help you out also, design, perspective, etc.


Evolution Of Modern Architecture

I’m in grade 11 now and I really want to become an architect but i’m not really sure if I can, since, I suck at drawing :S. So I was wondering if there are any sites that teach you the basics in architecture or if there are any that tell you all you need to know about it’s history and evolution and all. I’m very interested in all of this. Thank you very much for your help. Well, I have your answer. Wikipedia will provide you with the history and evolution of architecture. See For the basics of (building) architecture see this (not great) site, and this (better) site, . To help prepare you for your early college studies, you might consider doing any of the following. 1. To get a broad brush idea of what your college requirements might be, go to a school of architecture web site and review the curriculum. Match the curriculum up against the courses currently offered. Click on the courses and see what, if any, books are required. Check your library to see if any of those books are available. Also look at the Bureau of Labor statistics at . 2. Go to your local library and ask the librarian to help you find suitable books on the history of architecture and the biographies of famous architects. 3. Take pencil and paper drafting classes, if offered in your school, to develop a hand/eye understanding of line weights and drafting standards. 4. Take CAD (computer aided drafting) classes. AutoCAD is a standard. However, you can download an excellent free CAD program called DraftSight from , and teach yourself how to use it. This free programs works almost exactly like AutoCad LT. Get familiar with it and you’ll be well ahead of the game. Another frequently used program is SketchUp. This free 3D design and rendering architectural software can be found at . The blogs and forums will give you tons of information. In fact, this should be the first program you download and explore. It is easy, fun and serious. If I’m not mistaken, floor plans that are created in 2D DraftSight can be imported into 3D SketchUp. 5. Take drawing classes, any drawing classes. Of course art history is critical. You will need to learn about perspective drawing. 6. Take the highest level of math available to you. 7. Take writing classes. Excellent grammar, punctuation, spelling and sentence structure is critical in describing projects and writing specifications. (You seem to have this ability already. ) 8. Take a speech class. You will be making public presentations, so try to get the hang of it now. 9. Work in construction, if at all possible. 10. Call up a local architecture firm and ask if someone will review this list with you. Don’t let the above overwhelm you. But, be prepared to take advantage of the opportunities that will present themselves to you. Artist and Designer, U. S.

Contemporary Brazilian Music

I want to go to brazil and I don’t know what kind of music they like or their culture or nothing iis enyone from brazil? That can help me learn about this great place. . Indigenous tribe, Brazilian Music, Cinema, Literature, Contemporary Brazilian Poetry, or Brazilian Popular Music, etc. Do you know what I found? Music. Brazil has got lots of different styles, like the “classics” Samba and Bossa Nova. But there’s also MPB (Música Popular Brasileira, or Brazilian Pop Music), Funk (from Rio de Janeiro, not the american one), Axé and many others. There’s always a different style if you go to a different state. The one that probably makes more success is the Funk. It’s a very popular style. Ridiculous lyrics, but they’ve those chorus that don’t go out of your mind. O_o Funk probably had its best times in 2005, when EVERYONE (I meant, EVERYONE) loved it, being rich, being poor. Now it is lots weaker, but still powerful. Cinema? Well, there’s lots of “small Oscars” for brazilian movies, like the Rio de Janeiro and the Brasília prizes, but the most important cinema festival of the country is the Gramado Cinema Festival, that happens during the brazilian winter (Gramado is a rare example of town in Brazil where can snows). It’s in Gramado, a city in the mountain ranges of Rio Grande do Sul, and it is 2 hours by car from the capital, Porto Alegre. I’ve never been there during the festival, but I discovered that, if you pay, you can watch the Kikito (the name of the prize, in homage of an indian [indian not from India, ok? It means native indian] god) premiation. But I think it is awesome. 8D Cinema is being very “respected” in Brazil this times. Movies like Saneamento Básico, Se Eu fosse Você (comedy) and some others were very popular. But the american ones are still more popular. Literature? There’s the ABL (Academia Brasileira de Letras, Brazilian Academy of Letters), that tecnically has the best writers of the country as members. But don’t believe in this list. I think Moacir Sclyar is only “good writer” that it in ABL. There’s Mauricio de Sousa, the great guy that invented Monica’s Gang, one of the most popular comic characters and the most important brazilian comic ever; Moacyr Scliar, as I said; Luís Fernando Veríssimo; Martha Medeiros (her chronicles are awesome); Pedro Bandeira; Lya Luft and Ruth Rocha (those are the ones I remember now). Those are, at least I think, alive. There are classic poets like Drummond de Andrade and Mário Quintana, and classic writers like Guimarães Rosa and Érico Veríssimo (Luís Fernando Veríssimo’s father). Oh, don’t forget to list the soap-opheras in the brazilian “cultural” archive. I think that’s it. If you want anything more just tell me.

Brazilian Architecture Style

I’ve just completed an essay on Brazilian architecture. now all I need is a title. I want something unique. my essay focuses on how the style of architecture in Brazil has changed over the centuries. I also cover what cultures have influenced these changes, i. E. Portugal, France, Europe. I end with how Oscar Niemeyer has helped start a new age of architectural style in his creation of many of Brasilia’s modern buildings. any ideas for a title. Do you know what I found? “Hot” ideas architecture’s Oscar Niemeyer: a legend of modernism Brazil’s Modern Architecture Brazil Built

Modern Home Design

OK, I know there are lots of books on the electronics. But what I am more interested in are the considerations that go into room design of a HT. Examples of the kinds of questions I need answers to: – How do I best proportion the room? – Should I enclose the projector for noise reasons, and if so, what about cooling? – I see all these rooms with stages at the front. I read about vague acoustic benefits of such stages, but cannot find any real explanations. – What are the best room proportions? If I can’t do the ideal proportions, what are the consequences? – Is there a certain amount of room required between the seating and the side walls? – What’s e minimum ceiling height needed (and consequences for violating)? I see recommendations of having 8-10 foot ceilings but that’s an unattainable luxury. And is it a good trade off to give up some ceiling height for acoustic drop ceiling? – Do I need special heating ducts and returns? – What about acoustic wall treatments? I read you want sound deadening “but not too much. ” Is there any any way to quantify this? I recognize I can hire somebody to figure all this out for me, but surely there are books that explain it all. I’ve seen but wonder how good an eBook is where every google hit is a site selling it. Thanks. Well, I have your answer right here. Mark Flishman (from Home Theater Magazine) has a update to his guide. F. Alton Everest has a book called “Sound Studio Construction on a Budget” which is a great book on basic room acoustics. He has ‘formulas’ in the back for several sound studios – and 2 for home-theater rooms. You might also check out CEDIA: This is a organization that teaches stores/installers how to do everything from basic to high-end media rooms. You might also check out AVS Fourms. They have a section on dedicated HT rooms. Reading the designs and issues the users faced will probably answer most of your questions – and generate more. Hope this helps.


Top Architects

I have wondered that question for a long time, because I have always heard good things about civil engineers that they’re really smart, but I have never heard something special or important about an architect. Although, they beautify and make more interesting the world. I would want listen to a good explanation. I think that Architects should learn more about structures because they should be ones whoever design the entire building without the necessity of civil engineers. What do you think about that? I also think that civil engineers are also the ones whoever are dulling the architecture sector. Architects also work hard, and get very little for that great sacrifice. Should architects earn more money?. I would want good explanations. Thank you very much for your attention. Of course, Engineers have dulled the architecture because you would ask to ten people about what career is better between architecture and civil engineering, and I bet you that 8 people of 10 would answer that engineering because they have more opportunities. That is the reason why several people like architecture but they do no choose it because engineering have dulled architecture. That is my question if engineering is not dulling architecture why several people respond that engineering is better than architecture. After looking around, I learned — An architect is like the conductor in an orchestra, they know enough about all the disciplines that go into a building, but they don’t have a focus on one particular aspect . . Civil Engineers are just one of the many engineers under the umbrella of architecture, along with city planners, client, contractors, interior designers, lighting consultants . . Architects are people person, they deal with issues on the spot and come up with solutions to problems that have to satisfy every party involved in the project. Architects have to be able to communicate not only verbal, but visual presentation as well. For the amount of work and stress an architect does, he / she’s really not being compensated enough, the reward really isn’t worth the years of training. In reality, the work of an architect involves doing changes to a building numerous times before anything actually happens . . As an intern architect, he / she spents 8+ hours in front of the computer drafting the changes . . They don’t want to be good at ‘CAD’ programs because that’s all they’ll be stuck doing, but most of the design decisions are made on upper management levels already, so it’s really frustrating for a new architect graduate to have to suffer whoever knows how long before they have a break in their career . .

The Brazilian Dance

. I was happy to learn… Do you mean the Bossa Nova? Bossa Nova type of Brazilian music which acquired a large following. The Bossa Nova movement lasted about six years (1958-1963), and contributed a number of songs to the standard jazz repertoire. The musical style evolved from samba. However it is a bit more complex harmonically and is less percussive. The style of the basic dance steps worked with the music. You used soft knees to allow for sideways sways with hip movement. It could be danced solo or in pairs. “There were about ten various simple step sentences published. A variant of basic 8-beat pattern was: step forward, tap, step back, step together, repeat from the opposite foot. A variation of this pattern was a kind of slow Samba walk, with “step together” above replaced by “replace”. In fact, box steps of Rumba and whisk steps of Nightclub Two Step could be fitted with bossa-nova styling. Embellishments included placing one arm onto one’s own belly and waving another arm at waist level in the direction of the sway, possibly with finger click. ” There is a Bossa Nova line dance as well. If you want more info, here are a couple of useful links: (dance) I hope this helps you out.
