Area Lights settings and Technical drawing updates: Blender 3D Architect Pro reports

We often post resources and tips here in Blender 3D Architect, focusing on architectural visualization using Blender, our primary objective. Our objective and mission are to show how you can use open-source tools like Blender in your work. As a way to expand the content published on the site, we started Blender 3D Architect Pro by the end of 2020.

What is Blender 3D Architect Pro? It is a subscription-based section of our site where we post weekly tutorials and resources. Today, we send two tutorials that subscribers and either download or stream. All tutorials have the goal of expanding our content and are always related to architectural visualization and Blender.

Last week, we posted two tutorials and another asset:

• Area lights – Beam shape: A feature of Area Lights that can help us control the intensity of such light source is the Beam Shape. In this tutorial, I explain how to use it and make your Area Lights more useful for interiors. (MP4 + PDF + assets)
• Downloadable asset: Lionel chair: A chair model with all materials and data ready for the Asset Browser (blend file)
• Technical drawing template: If you plan to use Blender as a tool to create technical drawings, I will guide you on the process of crafting a template to use for that purpose. You can create this template and use it as a starting point for those drawings. (MP4 + PDF + assets)
