A bit overpriced, I’m still digging this x-acto, designed by Singgih Kartono. via designpublic.

Here is a pretty useful resource. Charette Center, Inc. has created an online research tool called StreetSections. Users can log in and create their own sections of great streets around the world.  The images here are ones I found in the gallery.

PEZO VON ELLRICHSHAUSEN ARCHITECTS

Beatriz Ramo is STAR strategies + architecture

“Philipp Schaerer creates his visualisations mostly by means of digital image montage. The focus of my work does not lie in the meticulous reproduction of photographic images. The question is rather how images which appear to be photographs are perceived and how the relation between appearance and reality, truth and arrangement can be described.”

Check out his process of this image through video timelaspse. Kudos to a guy who can brand and capitalize on a skill that practically every architect/designer is required to know. He takes the technicalities of 3d rendering and returns it back to the art of montage. This is usually the route I take when creating these sorts of images. It makes me feel like I am painting layers and layers of of descriptive information rather than just relying on the computer to output a static image.

Update:. Metropolis Magazine has some picture of the completed PS1 installation by MOS architects. Eager to experience this in person. image via MetropolisMag
