ITURE AILS
Designing a residential project for academic purposes provided valuable hands-on experience with softwares like SketchUp and AutoCAD, alongside post-production rendering tools like Enscape during early stages of my architectural journey. Through this process, I learned the intricate nuances of residential design, from furniture layout to real-scale spatial planning. Attention to detail was paramount, and a thorough understanding of the design evolution process from conception to execution. 04
