《modo302建筑建模教程》Luxology Modo Training :Architectural Modeling

Architectural Modeling

在这个视频教程中，我们将看到来自luxology的Andy Brown,我们将会看到作者如何运用给定的尺寸来创建一个建筑模型。
本次建模练习的题材是一种古典的建筑,部分来源于坐落在洛杉矶的Charles Eames房子。这是设计中不可或缺而且非常重要的一环，并且也是本教程完美的部分，它允许我们通过多个视角来创建这个建筑模型，从创建建筑物的框架到室内室外的细节。同时，它也是一个简洁的房子，设计非常人性化，为我们系统的提高观察力，提供了很大的帮助。

Video 01 - Framework
(Total Run Time: 23m)

In this first video we build the column and joist assembly which form the main supporting structure of the building. It’s also a key motif in the design creating a repeating pattern across the ceiling. With such an exposed structure, as we model the building we need to be sympathetic to the way it was built and our approach is to replicate that as much as possible as we develop the skeleton of the building. In the process we use Grid Snapping, Absolute Scale and the Workplane to make sure everything is correctly aligned and dimensioned.

Video 02 - Interiors
(Total Run Time: 27m)

In this second video we develop the upper and lower floors of the building. We use a fixed grid to trace out the walls from provided floor plans, and we use a combination of Absolute Scale and Drag Snapping to accurately create, position and open doors. We then use Booleans to create a stairwell, and at all times we take great care to ensure that everything is correctly aligned and scaled so that the upper floor blends seamlessly into the lower; breaking up the internal space of the building.

Video 03 - Windows
(Total Run Time: 42m)

In the third video we complete the house by concentrating on the window openings, which are a fundamental element in both the interior and exterior of the building. One of the signatures of this house is the way the exterior of the building is segmented to form an elaborate grid pattern — which means that most of the window panels are slightly different. To create them we not only make use of the workplane, snapping and Absolute Scale, and we also utilize macro recording to allow us to create the window panels both quickly and accurately. The video shows you how to make your macros accessible via a pie menu.
