My 12 Favorite Tutorials of 2010
2010 is behind us and just before we start with all the 2011 goodness here are my favorite 12 tutorial articles of 2010 on this blog. I wish you all the best 2011 possible. Enjoy!
Bergman Werntoft House / Johan Sundberg
House of wood and glass in Sweden by Johan Sundberg. Situated in a forest, these are great reference photos for how wood and glass look at day and dusk, inside and out.
Fogo Island Long Studio / Saunders Architecture
Crazy location and contrast between the studio design and the landscape it landed on. Great photo reference for this design by Saunders Architecture. I actually like many other works by them and most do have this site / design contrast relationship.
Amore Pacific Research & Design Center by Alvaro Siza, Carlos Castanheira and Kim Jong Kyu
Impressive set of photos made by FG+SG for the Amore Pacific Research & Design Center by Alvaro Siza, Carlos Castanheira and Kim Jong Kyu. Great reference for long distance shots of large structure and isolated near photos of interior and exterior areas. I love that dramatic, cloudy sky, images and the post balancing of light in them.
The Hollywood / Kanner Architects
Great looking wood cladding facade on white. Designed by Kanner Architects, this 54 unit housing project in LA has a striking appearance with an amazing inner pool courtyard and a set of daylight and dusk exterior and interior images.
“Real Estate” by Jonathan Weston
Cool sprite animation over a still 3d rendered image by Jonathan Weston. While the video showcases what might happen to a new development and what the property developers end up doing, I like it for the not so usual treatment and technical aspects. It has a high cool effect too!
