 This work was presented as an illustration of the contest Corel opportunities for serious architecture, urban planning, and scientific - research work. In fact, it is suitable not only for the design of trade marks and booklets. Unfortunately, the conditions of the tender of such "architectural" category, though there are many architects and designers use Corel in the design. Maybe this should provide a separate architectural nomination for the future?

  • Excellent !!! Wonder how much time did it take to complete this masterpiece?

    • Thank you! This work has no end. Protecting the concept stage will be soon. At this stage it was important to examine the historical roots of the colors of the city of Tomsk, to develop a methodology and analytical tools with which to analyze and manage the color palette of the city. Need to get rid of the color-chaos of the urban environment. The project should be implemented, but that's another, more complicated problem.

      Himself a "masterpiece" has the size of 1.4x20 m of graphic material. In addition, the explanatory memorandum and presentation.

      • That's very impressive from both, artistic and technical points of view - very impressive! Good luck in seeing it all finally implemented in reality!

        • Great and beautiful job wich involves art, technique and patience. Congratulations.

          • невероятная работа, огромная!!!!

            • можно спросить, а какой статус имеет имеет именно это векторное воплощение зданий с текстурами кладки и контурной линейной прорисовкой внешних декоративных архитектурных деталей в рамках научно-исследовательской работы? Конечно, фиксация на настоящий момент - уже оправдывает этот титанический труд, но как можно приложить эту потрясающую работу к практике?

              Скорее всего, мой вопрос поставлен неправильно, но простите мою невежественность.

              • Vector drawings of facades of buildings but of the work. Such drawings with many layers, can provide the facades of any kind. With textures, shadows and other realities. Depends on the scale drawing. Most of the 300 buildings drawings made with a very high degree of detail. Drawings made from photographs. Error in size of 100 mm to 50000 mm. This is acceptable. Although in this paper, we are talking about color harmony and excessive detail is not necessary. It is necessary to identify the major, dominant, subdominant and accent colors that make up a coherent whole.

                CorelDRAW allows you to manage all this, say a drawing of the general plan of the city in which 90 layers and about 7000 objects. The objects are linked to a common base of documents. CorelDRAW will make full and efficient graphical analysis.

                But the main problem is not in the schedule. We had to find a reliable color codes NCS architectural styles 18-20 centuries. And learn modern techniques of architectural polychromy. For this study were about 60 thousand documents presented in the public domain on the Internet. Made 19 000 photos of architecture, 6000 photographs of nature, learned in 1500 of historic photographs, 22000 architectural photographs unique polychromy.

                A realization is constant. With more or less success. It has its problems. In order to implement given a special documentation. But this is a routine job and is unlikely to be of interest to this site.

                • Спасибо за развернутый ответ, Николай.
