“The emphasis of the 2012 Biennale - explains <b>David Chipperfield</b> - is on what we have in common. Above all, the ambition of <i>Common Ground</i>
is to reassert the existence of an architectural culture, made up not
just of singular talents but a rich continuity of diverse ideas united
in a common history, common ambitions, common predicaments and ideals.
In architecture everything begins with the ground. It is our physical
datum, where we make the first mark, digging the foundations that will
support our shelter”<br />

Alternatively we can export out the information as still images. these can then be printed.</b></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<div>
<span style="color: yellow;"><b>Exporting to Scale:</b></span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>The best way to export to scale is as a PDF Document, go to <b>File- Export- Export PDF</b></li>
</ul>
This will again export what is inside the page boundary only (the default resolution of 300dpi is used). PDF documents export line drawings at a better quality than other export file types and produce more accurate line thicknesses. We can also have access to the classes in the resulting pdf document (make sure export classes as PDF layers is ticked in the export options)</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><span style="background-color: #444444;"><span style="color: white;">Another way to export your model to scale go to; </span><b><span style="color: #cc0000;">File- Export- Export Image File.</span></b></span></li>
</ul>
<span style="background-color: #444444; color: white;">Now we can select </span><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #cc0000;">'Each Page as seperate Image'</span><span style="background-color: #444444; color: white;">. This means that only what is inside the page boundary will be exported and that it will be exported at the pre-set page size automatically</span><br />
<span style="background-color: #444444; color: white;"><br />
We still have to set the resolution and file type (for line drawings 240dpi should be sufficient).</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: yellow;">Exporting in Perspective:</span></b><br />
<br />
To export one of your saved views and cameras (or any other perspective view) go to;<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">File- Export- Export Image File</span><br />
<br />
Here we can ask the computer to render and export '<span style="color: red;">Current view'</span>, this will export only what is with-in the viewing space contained by the black corner controls. You should therefore compose the dimension of the export first and frame it on the screen using the zoom tools. Also note that it will export in whichever render mode you have on the screen.<br />
<br />
<b>Resolution:</b><br />
Depending on the time available and the use of the render we can export out at any given resolution. For good quality renders I suggest at least 300dpi. for line work at least 240dpi.<br />
<br />
The best thing to do is to test the quality for each model. the more lights and textures that you have the longer the render is going to take. it is not unusual for some renders to take as long as 1 hour (if not 10!)<br />
<br />
<b>Print Size:</b><br />
Here we can set the export print size. As the ratio is already set in the saved view we only need to input a value for either width or height not both (e.g 420mm width for an A3 landscape export).<br />
<br />
<b>File type:</b><br />
Select from a wide range of file types. I suggest jpeg or tiff for now.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">When you have set all of the required fields, click save and give the render a name and select where to save to.</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span>

<br />
You can import plans, elevations, sections etc into Vectorworks and use them as guides to trace or model from.<br />
<br />
To import go to <span style="font-weight: bold;">File >Import >Import Image File</span>,
and select the file that you require.<br />
However we must remember to select an appropriate
scale to work in before importing (e.g. if the section is scanned in at
1:10, set the scale in Vectorworks to 1:10 also).<br />
<br />
It is best to leave this plan in its own layer. Go to <span style="font-weight: bold;">Tools>Organization >Design Layers</span>, and create a new layer to model in (<span style="font-weight: bold;">Trace</span>). The old layer can be renamed <span style="font-weight: bold;">Plan</span> Layer.<br />

<br />
<span style="color: yellow;"><b>Duplicate Along Path Tool:</b></span><br />
<br />
We can also duplicate objects and symbols along pre drawn paths (any 2D object) by using the Duplicate Along Path tool.<br />
<br />
In the Preferences Box we can decide to place the object at set intervals along the path or decide on the number of duplicates to be placed. Select Tangent to Path to place the duplicates consistently at right angles to the path.<br />
<br />
When modelling architectural schemes it is often useful to use the same path for more than one task. For example if we use a path to model a curved sofa we can use it again to place a set of tables in front of it. For this to work however we must first off-set the original path to the required distance so that the tables will position themselves parallel to the sofa path.<br />
<br />
It is always useful to keep copies of paths that you use as you may need them later on. We can also duplicate Light sources along paths (we will look at this next term!).<br />
