There is a fine line to walk when presenting selections though. Present too few and your client may not feel well served. Present too many and they will freeze up, stall and often panic, as they attempt to process the overwhelming amount of information required to make a decision. How many schemes during Schematic Design?

This is an interior view of the Farnsworth House – it is stunning to see in person and it was a project that I had never seen in person before but it was on my architecture bucket list ( now that would be a good idea for a blog post) I ate terribly when I was in Chicago despite the fact that it is fairly renown as a foodie-town.

This post is my contribution to an international blog series called #ArchiTalks. How can we use virtual reality tools to allow our clients a visual and aural experience inside our designs? When presenting your next set of schematic designs, come prepared with a basket of freshly baked cookies.

Doug and I have formed a professional architect-to-architect relationship since I started writing my blog and we have routinely exchanged emails over the years discussing a myriad of subjects. For years I have done all my initial design efforts for individual clients in face to face, highly participatory meeting with the owners.

So share this blog with every architect you know!). When we present our initial schematic designs to our client, we are selling. When I present a product or service to a prospective client, I am presenting them with something that will improve their lives. Are you making enough to simply pay the bills?

I built my network by starting a blog where I interviewed architects around Berlin and offered to publish their work. It also made use of the training we actually receive in architectural school: developing schematic design ideas and presenting our concepts with compelling graphics and storytelling.
