This is really not one of my best works but I'm especially proud of this one.  It's an exterior perspective of an office building we were designing in the architectural firm where I'm working at.

If you're also an architect and have worked for an architectural firm for some time, you would understand that some projects can be slow-paced and with a very loose time-frame, while others require you to finish the work as fast as your mind can produce a thought.  Well this project is of the latter type.

Have you had an experience in using Autocad where in you've already done a lot of labeling and have added a lot of callouts and text tags in your plans and drawings when you realized that some of the repeating callouts and text tags that you have been putting in all over the drawings were all wrong?  And then you go to all the hassle of going back and forth through your drawings to look for all those wrong texts and correcting them one by one?  Well, it happened to me a few years back when I was labeling all the finishes and specifications on the plans and elevations of a house I was working on in Autocad.  I was almost done with the callouts when I realized my mistake, I had placed a wrong specification for a certain finish I  was planning to use on the house.  The worst part about that is that certain word was scattered and was repeated all over the drawings.  It took me a lot of my time just to go through the drawings again to look for the word and to correct them one by one.   After that experience, I knew that I had to find a faster way to do the corrections if it happens to me again.  It did happen to me again but fortunately I found out about the Find and Replace Dialog Box in Autocad.

Are you looking for a good color scheme or color matching guide for some of your design problems - architectural design, interior design, web design, page layout, etc.?  Here's a nice little tool I found on the net that I think every designer would like to have - A Color Scheming Tool.
