Most of my time as an architect is spent doing this...

- A recent site visit + client request sets in motion a process every architect is familiar with: redesign + revisions. This is my process for solving real-world architectural problems, from sketching to updating the drawings and documents.
It’s been a challenging winter building the Outpost project. But spring is finally here and big changes are afoot. I’m looking forward to sharing them with you in upcoming videos.

Eric, any chance metric versions could be created?
@@justinbradshaw5112 Of course, metric + Imperial versions are both included!
0:01 I like that you have a book of Draplin. Good Taste in Graphic Design.
Many thanks Eric, I should have read the description first . Assume is doom.
Do you know drafting software with standard dimensions?
Im kinda worried about having dimensions too big/small with existing standards/regulations.
"I enjoy drafting" keeps echoing through my mind...
You know, Eric, I have been designing homes in AutoCAD for over 30 years and your CAD work embarrasses me. I really need to step up my game. Thanks for the kick in the pants, I mean, inspiration! Cheers.
Oh my god, what is it with everything being planned on AutoCad, I am doing Mechanical Engineering at School and I am just 16 and I am a golfer aswell but I have discovered allot of things because I need the skills for CSEC but I still rather make my sketches on paper in a golf course then Apply it on AutoCad Because I can't take a computer on a golf course
@ambright the thinker I Asking if everything needs to be AutoCad based for those managers to acknowledge
Kaizen...continuous improvement...I stand alongside you, my friend. Always seeking better. Cheers...
@@30by40 I have found that teaching has made me up my game. If I expect things from my students, I should expect it from myself.
@@surajseepersad7558 get a laptop lol
I’ve been watching your channel for about 3 years now. I’m about to start architecture school! Thanks you so much for all the great videos and the inspiration. This means a lot for me:)
Cheers...Archi-school is an amazing experience...enjoy it!
It's my dream to go to that I really wanna be one
@@baconator678 Do it. Worth it.
@@TheFisherLarry you think I should?
@@baconator678 Why not?
This channel has helped me loads. I'm seating my exams this year to become a fully chartered UK Architect and this channel and your books have been a great resource. I wish this channel existed when I was studying at the Welsh School of Architecture. Many thanks, Eric.
Hi bruv..I'm 17 interested to study architecture in UK..don't mind me asking where did u go in uni?? How do u carry the study expenses ?? 😅😅 im actually still making decisions
Cheers mate...good luck with your exams...! Was in Cardiff just before lockdown...what a fantastic place Wales is...
@@30by40 Didn't expect to see this comment! If you don't mind me asking, Work or pleasure?
Wow...you weren't joking when you said you like to travel. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. Did you try a pint of Brains Dark? Frank Lloyd Wright's mum was born was in Ceredigion. I was shocked when I originally found out.
Hi Ayaan, I was lucky, I received a grant from the Welsh Government and they paid my Uni fees. I also had a part time job.
It's like I am watching a film! Such an incredible way of being immersed in Architecture.
Love this series of understanding drawings and thought processes. Keep up the good work and keep impressing us!
I've been browsing your content and I really appreciate it & your willing to put yourself out there. It's been helping me understand your mindset & your approach so I can understand how I can serve architects I work with better. Not that you represent all architects, but it's another breath of knowledge to add to the collection.
Quality content as always. Always loved & admired your way of presentation. Every time I find myself more curious about you & your way of doing things. Keep growing 👍🏼👍🏼
That’s perfect. I love working with these kind of small adjustments and redesigns. It’s satisfying when you find an optimal solution. Can’t wait to start in architecture school this fall
Thanks Eric another brilliant video. Please keep them coming, your a big inspiration to me across the pond in the UK.
i love seeing your process. thanks for showing it to us :)
listening to your videos all night!! I’m an architecture student in the province of Quebec, Canada, and your videos helped me a lot with my motivation and gave me good tips for current projects! Love it!
I’m in the process of going back to school for architecture so this is some great insight that I hope will give me a leg up before I start! Thank you.
Thank you sir , I enjoy each video, your knowledge is appreciated.
I really wish I could work in your practice..I know I'd be feeling elated every day with that luminous architectural soul that shines through your videos. Years working for a consultant and not many encounters with true architecture still..thank you for rekindling my passion for architecture 🌸
Amazing content as always, Eric. Your design process is very inspirational.
As always!! Amazing and the process seems so streamlined and solution driven.. Keep it up. Keep inspiring us.
I respect so much of your drawings, so clean and pure, i learned a lot from then, Cheers from Brazil!
I just love to see how you organize the information and how you show everything, I'm from Brazil, and here we're turning more to the 3D now, and using sketchup together with layout, or ravit, aniway, I just love the way you show everything, and how it's so clean and easy to understand.
More of such content please! Love watching the whole process! :)
Maybe a library rolling ladder attached to the bookshelf so you can reach the top shelf of books and also have easy access to the display shelf above it. Just a short architect over here :). I love your lighting design and beautiful drawing style.
Or run the front bookcase up to the ceiling pitch, besides an aperture through to the mezzanine, and bring the rolling-ladder's top higher, as high as the pitch allows anyway. Then you've a 'cubic' bedroom space, and a reading alcove, with a hidden source of light permeating through the books from behind.
whenever i wanna start doing on my projects, i always watch first any of your videos to give me a boost. i've been a fan since your long house design videos
I really love your videos and admire all your work. As an architect, it really inspires me! I wish I could apply for your firm! Anyway take care and keep the great work!
Love your drawing plan! Would be nice to see the master bedroom finished as a final result after this!
I just can't believe how good these drawings look. Great inspiration!
As soon as I heard where the new update is, guessed a small readings room and it will be the perfect space. I cant wait to see this project at the very end, gives me a lot of excitement.
To begin studying Architecture in university this year has been a challenge to say the least... Thank you for keeping on inspiring! :) With few classmates' work to see, we easily (especially as first-years) have no idea where to go - but these videos in particular help create drive and something to work for. Thank you :)
Awesome as always.
Thank you for another great video! Always the highlight of my TH-cam viewing!
appreciate that!
\m/
Been sketching for years and absolutely love architecture but didn't ever start a relevant study. Your vids changed that! I enrolled for Engineering and I'm starting this September! Planning on specializing in Architecture after! Your work reminded me of how much I love this. Thanks a million!
I love your graphics. Watching your videos is really inspiring
Love the view out to the water. Incredible!
haha... I really loved what you said about not caring less what software anyone chooses to use. As long as it works for the individual and is effective for his/her design culture/method.
thanks for this, Eric
great ending of the video!!! Thanks for doing these videos so interesting and visually pleasing!
cheers...thanks for watching (until the end!)
Your job and your passion for details are extremely amazing, greetings from Peru 🇵🇪 your videos help me a lot!
Me too, great contribution for the architecture community, I'm also from Perú
Muchachos que tablet usa el arquitecto.
I'm also from Peru xd
Finally! I love your videos!
Eric. Your drawings style is phenominal! I see you are using the Original Granite Bracket to support your fixed shelves. We just discovered these not long ago and will not go back!
Came to see practical uses for procreate. Stayed because architecture is awesome to watch apparently.
From a Revit user (previously cad) I really love your content! At the end of the day drawings are graphic instructions, usually for a contract on site. Even in Revit, I also try to achieve that level of graphic contrast that you show in your videos. Although, one of the main benefits of using Revit (BIM) is for example to avoid reference everything again as your mentioned in the video. Great video again, waiting for the next one!! Cheers
Your work is amazing. Top-Notch!
Thanks for all you share
I love the way you work
I'm a architecture school student in Taiwan. Your channel inspiring and encouraging me a lot.Very like the way you work and the out come. Thank you.
my favorite inspired architect still love you - to not forget things i use gtd from david allen with professional workflows extracted from Reference books an a set of checklist for the most kind of drawings.
definitely the best architecture content creator! thank you a dozen
Amazing....as always
So inspiring Eric!
Enjoyed everything about the video. I don’t know why, but I am always fascinated when designers and professionals share their thought process. It’s very comforting that they go through the same process as most of us, even though the results look unreachable to the majority of us.
PS. I also love UpCodes. Great tool and very helpful. Free too! Great to see it on the video.
I'm in love with your style of drafting....
Cada momento e processo dessa obra é eletrizante!
Precisamos de legendas para Língua Portuguesa do Brasil!
It is kinda fitting that you post a video today. I just got my Associates in Architectural Studies. I plan to continue on to get my Bachelor's and eventual Masters, but I feel very happy with where I am and what I have done. I have been watching your videos since I started architectural studies classes as a Junior in high school; it has been four years. The videos you post are both inspirational and informative and have really helped me through some of my design courses. For the next three years, plan on me to continue watching! And I want to thank you, and commend you, for the great work that you have been posting here on youtube. P.S. I don't like Revit either.
shout out to all the tradesmen and women with boots on the ground who not only recognize the need for changes based upon their own working knowledge and experience, but implement these changes as they arise. cant tell you how many job sites i've been on where it's been a framer/plumber/electrician/concrete guy looking over plans who's had to bring to the attention of the suit and tie guys how and why something in a design won't work. it's a beautiful thing to see the collaboration between so many professionals to see a build through to it's completion.
It´s great that you still use autocad, cheers.
Beautiful
This is amazing...all of your content is...lighting design process was super helpful and its just really therapeutic watching you draw 😊
Thank you so much!
Another informative and very inspiring video for us fellow architects (and non-architects of course!) as always! Keep up the great work!!
Ps. Also, agreed! I love the ability to draw that Autocad allows, tried both Revit and Archicad and still I come back to good old Autocad 😅
Wow. I admire you very detailed. Thanks for sharing. A new friend here from Philippines
thanks for sharing this. sharing the design process to the public can be quite scary because everyone will have a different opinion on what could have been - just turns the comment section into a crit panel. but I think it's so valuable since very few designer actually go through how they get there. just wanted to express the appreciation and hope you stick with it, cheers
Great video as always.
Wow, your video was great!! Make some more💖💖
Awesome as always! I love your methodology! It's amazing to see you working! Could you show us how you keep your files, or how you organize your folders? thanks for your videos.
Sir... not only are your videos great on Architecture... they are true masterpieces on video production! Congratulations!
Thanks so much, I really appreciate that!
Beautiful drawings
As always, "Magnificent"
Agreed about the Revit comment ;) I've been pressured to make the switch, but like you, I actually enjoy the drafting aspect and feel like I have more control over design and detailing with AutoCAD
Beautiful mate
man your drawings are beautiful, so cool seeing lineweights in the sea of Revit.
Is he working on Revit or CAD?
@@warrior_of_liberation CAD
design methodology is perfect, exactly how my design principal teaches..
learnt something useful..
thanks for sharing the insight
interior design student here, from India.
As a carpenter & designer, I'm dying to see this one done! :)
Amazing 100%
Enjoyable as always. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Tim...hope you're well and staying busy!
@@30by40 Extremely busy. Always good to see your videos. I can relate and I think you do an excellent job of providing information to the non-architectural educated public.
loveve you mate you share evertrything... Philip Martin from down under
Quality pays off! It's great to see that even though the video has just been uploaded, there's relatively a lot of engagement. The best thing is that all of this engagement is well deserved 👍
I love your graphic style. So much so that I bought your template. In the video, you moved a door opening that was a polyline but didn't have to move the nodes attached to the perpendicular lines. What magic spell was that. Thank you for the great content.
Cheers my friend...here's the trick: simply select the line, your grips will appear, click the grip and move to where you'd like it (I typed 12 to move it 12" to the left).
Is it weird I find designing and creating beautiful practical buildings extremly relaxing and satisfying?
love it
I like your work..
Great Content and thank you for sharing this with us.
PS: I love how drawings were part of the music; linking them to the change of chords 14:12
cheers mate...good eye...!
Love the idea. I personally would have loved to add a tv console in the center of the bookshelf.
I'm still thinking about studying architecture, I just can't decide. If your channel didn't exist, I'd be completely lost, thank you so so much! Luckily there's still about 8 months before I need to know what to do with my life...
Unless you want to be underpayed for the huge amount of work you gonna have to do, do not choose architecture
Do what you love.
Honestly everyone presses that you have a deadline to choose a field to study but there is no deadline. You have your whole life to decide. You have plenty of time to figure out you as person first and from there to get to know yourself and what you’d actually enjoy doing. Be patient & kind to yourself. Don’t force yourself into something just because you feel like you’re suppose to have it all together already like society so hardly pushes onto everyone. Take your time.
very important video. architecture schools never teach workflow examples. its very hard for me to star my own methodology. having your example is great
Inclination to make things better or Go Build It Better. While the Loft conversation made me recognize how nice to work with clients that really understand themselves and how they respond to a space, (ie cleaning vs access) my mind was still waiting for the explanation of the collection of bearings and their use. Good stuff as always.
His soothing and informative videos >>>>>>
This lesson is easier to understand. I know very well how boring college education can be, you make it easier and more interesting to learn. That's something very few people have, good work.
Eric 🥺 You are my inspiration...
I'm a mechanical engineering student, and it's always fun interesting your video. Actually what I love the most that you somehow teaching us how to think like engineer and how to get the the engineer mind set. Thank you very much.
I'm just curious to ask and I will deeply appreciate it if you could replay my comment, If do have any friends provide engineering content for mechanical engineers in construction field.
Thank you again!
Awesome ...
Awsome!
Great video
Man this guys stuff is good
un crack, saludos de México!
Hey i just want to say thank you for always inspiring me for designing structure for my college projects i just want to request a guide or the way you use the autocad video it will be very helpfull for all of us who are willing to be architects in futue thank you again ❤❤
Just liking didn't seem like enough...great video!
*chef's kiss*
So over revit been trying to get to grip for a year and graphically I just can’t get what I want out of it. So I should switch back now. However would love to come and have a tour of the house when complete. Have a Q&A day with the client and walk around the site and views. I hope you are putting a book together this looks stunning and I love the refining work with the client. Keep up the great work my friend.
You'll see people give Revit a lot of praise. Often times those are managers who don't put in the huge amounts of overtime dealing with Revit's sh*t. Even advanced users experience graphical glitches; and quite often at that. I threw in the towel myself. I could get what I wanted from the program but found that the time required increased exponentially with the complexity of the projects I was working on. Using a 'freerer' program worked much better for myself.
Can u give a more detail on how you set up your layers on your cad software. I'm always inspired 🙏
I like your brief rant, xD the only think I have to say is, what makes your style, is not driven by the tools you use, is your style ,language of desing and representation techniques that makes your work stand out from the bunch....
Your comment about AutoCAD, REVIT, etc. had me chuckling. It's funny to get blasted with the "best programs" from all-knowing (usually well meant) folks. My comment to the folks pushing their programs...They are all just different pens...you still need to know how and what to draw. Thanks for the great content, Eric. Best.
Couldn't agree more! Cheers...
Great video as always. I would have loved to see a couple of skylights instead of the additional window. Could have really drawn your eye up to the void and interesting roof form.
So many options...! Alas, skylights were ruled out by the owner...
