Based on this house addition, which consisted of a large family room and a second- story master bedroom, two major spaces were developed to provide useable outdoor space. A major formal entertaining garden is located just outside both the living room and the family room. The central part of this space is a large formal […]

COMPUTER RENDERING WITH PHOTOSHOP (FIGURE 15-28)
The two renderings in Figure 15—28 were also computer generated. Adobe Photoshop was used to develop them. Just as in hand-drawn rendering, the computer can be utilized to produce loose and freehand-like drawings, as well as more refined drawings that look more computer generated. Both renderings use colors from around the color wheel, which is […]
COMPUTER RENDERING WITH ILLUSTRATOR (FIGURE 15-27)
As stated earlier in this chapter, some designers have the requisite computer skills to develop color renderings using various programs—among many others are Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop. The two renderings in Figure 15—27 were developed using Adobe Illustrator. Both were developed as “analogous color schemes.” Rather than using colors from most of the color […]
COLOR RENDERING AT VARIOUS DESIGN STAGES
Functional Diagram Stage (Figure 15-25, Top Left) In presenting color-rendered functional diagrams to a client, there are a few major guidelines. First, use simple individual colors to represent the various design elements. For instance, use yellows and greens to denote plant materials, earth tones to represent paving materials, blues to identify water elements, and purples, […]
COLOR RENDERING A BASIC PLAN (FIGURE 15-24)
There may be times when only a color rendered plan is desired. This second method of color rendering deals with the application of color on a basic plan, one in which only simple circles and lines are drawn. This will undoubtedly save time, but it will usually require most of the needed copies to be […]
COLOR RENDERING AN ALREADY RENDERED BLACK-AND-WHITE PLAN
The plan on the left in Figure 15—23 has already been rendered in black and white. The line weights, values, and textures are very well coordinated in representing the variety of items in this design. All that is missing is a series of labels identifying all the design elements. A number of landscape designers may […]
WALLS, FENCES, BENCHES, PLANTERS, ARBORS, AND WATER ELEMENTS (FIGURE 15-22)
Fences and Benches (Left) Use a brown and yellow combination for wood fences and posts, along with some shadow to the bottom right. (Right) Benches are rendered in any combination of colors. Shadow them to portray their three-dimensional quality. Walls and Planters (Left) Use gray and light blue for limestone caps, rust colors for brick, […]
