Porter Sq. Section
I have been developing several illustrations for the Porter Sq project the past couple of months and have finally finished one of the section diagrams. I decided to go a little old school with this one and keeping things monotone. With this style of illustration I am...
Moody Black and White
I recently stumbled across an article about an architecture photographer named Sajin Sasidharan and his black and white photos of Dubai. The images are extremely dramatic and he is very strategic about how he uses light to create clear focal points and manage visual...

KRob Competition 2019
The 45th Ken Roberts Memorial Delineation Competition (KRob) has long been one of my favorite architecture visualization competitions. I'm always blown away by the uniqueness and quality of work and how each year seems to draw out more imaginative and compelling...
Porter Sq. At Night
Alright, I finally was able to finish up my design of Porter Square Station and therefore create a rendering revealing the new design. I kept the same view angle as the "Under Construction" renderings to finish off the series. This also meant I was able to reuse a lot...

PORTFOLIO WORKFLOW

Portfolio Vol. 5
This section coming soon. Learn more about this book HERE
Portfolio Vol. 4
My latest portfolio released in 2016, Portfolio Volume 4 discusses new layout and illustrations/diagrammatic styles. Over 35 posts break down each illustration and explores ideas of composing and refining portfolio presentation techniques.
Portfolio Vol. 3
Released in 2014, Portfolio Vol. 3 builds off of Portfolio Vol. 2 by introducing a new workflow that includes Indesign to better manage page and text organization. New image styles such as x-ray illustrations and exploded axons are introduced.
Portfolio Vol. 2
Developed in 2007, this was my second portfolio created after grad school. The layouts are relaxed with the text playing an important role on many of the pages. Except for the thesis spreads, each project uses no more than 2 spreads to describe the project requiring a denser use of text and images in the layout
