Hi there my name is Steven, architect and lover of architectural representation. 


I am an architect currently living in Colombia. I have more than six years experience in the areas of architectural design, architecture visualization and teaching. My goal is to teach architects architectural representation.

I loved this course a lot. It's a great course for people to understand the basics of creating a digital collage with great photoshop tricks. I learned a lot from this course and it will really step up the game on how you present your drawings.

This course is not just about how to create an Architecture Collage , but also helps in developing Photoshop skills and learn new settings about sketch-up and v-ray. Great narration by Steven (Show it Better),the Instructor.

I haven't even finished yet, but I am amazed. Steve gave us something I have never found in other classes about this subject: a historical background! And he relates architectural collages with some paintings that we can get inspired by. It's a great and inspiring view for us students. Such a great professor.

This is such a great set of tutorials - the whole structure is so comprehensive. It was really helpful to also understand the workflow foundations (sketching out what you're aiming for, making location-appropriate mood boards and colour palettes) in addition to technical guidance on SKP, PS and Vray. The history of collage and a look at contemporary precedents really rooted this kind of work in an artistic lineage, even if the technology is different now. Steven's not only technically adept, but also a great communicator in that he's thought really carefully about how to build up the lessons. A brilliant teacher!

Amazing! It is well organized, starting with history, references, modern era drawings and an easy understanding conversation.
