VIDEO DETAILS:
When the client comes to you and says, I love the design, but hate the elevations, its time to get back on ArchiCAD and start re-designing. However this can be a really painful experience if you don't know these simple options.
Regardless of how simple of complex the design is on archicad, as an architect you should have the skills and ability to be able to provide an alternative in a matter of minutse. One of the simplest ways to change the elevation is to manipulate the roof line.
By manipulating the roof line in archicad you can take the project from modern, to hamptons, or boring to inspiring. Even with the example I show today which is literally just two boxes stacked on top of each other, we are able to create a variety of different evelations without having to move a single wall.
The pitched roof alternative can be used as a simple alternative shown to the client from day one which allows them to choose their prefered design. Most of the time client don't actually know what type of architecture they like or want until they have seen something put on paper.
In this archicad 24 tutorial I show you have to set up archicad, model all of the walls and windows in the basic design, and then how to duplicate the entire project so you can begin designing alternative elevations.

33:45 Hi David, thanks so much for this tutorial. A quick question, how did you stretch that corner slab, I failed to and cannot find that stretch icon when clicking at the node.

[@DavidTomic]

Hmmm... try un-group elements and then try again? It should be there if you're selecting the right node.

[@GraalElk]

do you actually work with this setup (desk, pc)? its so super clean, looks unreal, but i love it xd

This is my home office. Work office is just an imac :)

hi, am a student using education lisence and am asking how do I the wall and roof cladding, am struggling to do that from my end

[@DavidTomic]

It is a mycadimage tool, see if you have access to it via your student license

[@sam1hg644]

Hey how do u finish up the elevations? Do u use photoshop or render them in archicad? Thanks a bunch

[@DavidTomic]

The one you see on the thumbnail was just a twinmotion render and export. For construction purposes it's all archicad based, as presentation is less important

[@sam1hg644]

@@DavidTomic thank you :)

[@samu4922]

why archicad stair's first step tread always smaller when finishes off

go back to school mate.

Please I humbly suggest you zoom before clicking, so as to see it clearly and for better learning thanks

Wow your computer is fast.....specifications??

[@sudique]

Can you do a video about detailing from foundation to roof. I'm trying to save time in my work flow by doing more model detailing in 3d so sections are done but struggling a bit.

[@DavidTomic]

I did a timber framing explanation video with something similar. This might help?

[@VictorCosmin]

@@DavidTomic speaking of iMacs, have you had any issues by switching from Mac to PC on the same file? I remember encountering issues with fonts.

[@caucm12]

Uh.. I was a little confused because the title of the tutorial is “Elevations”… though was actually representing Elevations not making levels 😂🤦🏻‍♀️..

[@DavidTomic]

Different use of terminology in different countries 😅
