Can you spat the different lighting? Some will say it is the CCT (correlated color temperature of the light, warmer verses whiter). Some may say it is the beam angle, one being wider and the other narrower. Some may say both. However, this is the EXACT same light used for all light fixtures in the picture. The only difference is the material finish on the building. This is to show the impact of finishes on lighting. The white finish reflects light better. So we see the beam at its full wideness and we also see the 4500K light appear it's normal CCT. On the bronze part of the building the light appears narrower because darker finishes absorb more light, so were only seeing the center punch of the fixture. Also, it reflects the light back darker so it gives it the appearance of a 2700K light source, even though it is the same 4500K. #Exterior #exteriorlighting #light #architecture #design #multi-family #apartments #design

CORTEN FACADES While these facades bring a beautiful, weathered aesthetic, there’s a common challenge to keep in mind - rust runoff. As rain hits the panels, the rust can run off and stain surfaces below, such as pavements, columns, or other architectural elements. Not part of your design plan? Here are a few ways to manage it: - Pre-weathered steel: while this option can minimize the impact, be mindful that some runoff may still occur. - Place plants or ground cover that can handle rust runoff without affecting the aesthetic of your design. - Consider where Corten is installed and ensure that areas prone to staining aren't critical design elements. Remember, integrating Corten can add a dynamic element to your facade, but being mindful of its impact ensures your design remains clean and intentional. #corten #facades #rust #solutions #architecture

"Elevating design with every step: A harmonious blend of raw brick, sleek lines, and the beauty of natural light. #InteriorDesign #ArchitecturalBeauty #NaturalLight #StaircaseDesign #ModernLiving"

Simple yet powerful design and a sleek open cell definitely make your premises both attractive and functional!

Using reflective glass as an architectural design element can add intrigue and sophistication to any building. By capturing and reflecting sunlight, bodies of water, and surrounding architecture, it creates a dynamic visual experience that instantly draws your attention. Relax Park in Cherkassy, Ukraine, consists of a hotel with several restaurant halls, some located directly on the water. This project is a perfect example of successfully combining reflective glass and Fundermax exterior phenolic panels to create an eye-catching design. Fundermax panels can be used for an assortment of architectural designs for exterior, interior, and laboratory projects. From perforated designs to custom washroom partitions, Fundermax has helped bring many designs to life.

Our Skywall system offers effortless flexibility, allowing you to transform a room into separate spaces with just the press of a button. Unlike conventional systems, Skywall eliminates the need for bulky stacking arrangements. With a simple touch, partition sections smoothly descend from the ceiling, creating a stylish and functional division between spaces. To retract, press the button again, and the Skywall's innovative design discreetly stores the partitions in a concealed ceiling compartment, leaving your space open and unobstructed. The system offers impressive sound reduction, with up to Rw 42dB (single wall) and Rw 62dB (double wall).

"Sleek lines and bold visions—this is modern living. #DesignInFocus" In architecture, a building's external design and aesthetic that emphasizes modern materials and styles is often referred to as a "contemporary style." Here is my most recent residential project, which achieves an appropriate equilibrium between the client's requirements and the newest trends in material and design to improve the building's appearance while meeting those needs. Several key elements that utilized in this project's external elevation involve the following: -clean, straight lines that highlight a minimalist style. -A blend of elements for visual appeal, such as glass, concrete, metal, and wood. -Unconventional forms and arrangements that produce lively profiles -Use of vibrant colors or distinctive textures to provide a façade that stands out. #architect #architecturaldesign #3dvisualization
