Grand Designs

[Anonymous]

There is an excellent UK TV show on at the moment called Grand Designs http://www.channel4.com/4homes/ontv/grand-designs/grand-designs-abroad/index.html

After a few series showing "Grand Designs" in the UK, they are off to Europe and have been recently filming in France and Spain.

There are a couple of small animations which are downloadable from their web site, that have been IMHO executed fairly well.

and

I would be interested to know what others felt about the animations, as I know that in general some Archi "masters" have not recommeded using animations for presentation work.

But the movies indeed show the point.

Wish.

How about using ArchiCAD 9? It comes with a demo mode option that anyone could use for free to view the model in OpenGL.

Rather heavy install for a quick demo, don't you think?

Yea. To big. Even using custom install.
