A Drawing Audit with me will help you develop better drawings. How does it work? You send me your drawings in PDF form. Something that you’re working on or trying to develop. Option A: I’ll review the drawings, mark them up with items that I see could use some improvements, solve some sticking points for you, or something else that you are having problems with. After this review, I’ll send these markups back to you along with a video discussing what I see along with some ideas of how the drawings can be improved. Option B: I’ll review the drawings, mark them up with items that I see could use some improvements, solve some sticking points for you, or something else that you are having problems with. After this review we get on a live call together. I'll go through my notes with you. We talk about the drawings and why I marked them up the way I did. You have a chance to ask questions about my notes and anything else in the drawings that you want to discuss. At the end of our session, you will have a good understanding of your drawings and my suggestions to make them better. I'll send you the mark-ups and the video recording of our review. The types of drawings that we can work on: Architectural design development Interior design development Kitchen design development Millwork and cabinet engineering, detailing, and design development Book a call to get started. https://calendly.com/aecdesign/30min I'm offering (2) slots of each option, so (4) chances total, to my Drafting Workshop community at no charge. I will be charging for these in the future, so now is your chance to give them a spin at no cost to you. I'm only asking for some constructive feedback so I can do better for you.

I’ve seen a few posts from recent graduates or young architects who are starting new positions, but are having a problem working out how to put CAD drawings together. They’re being asked to be responsible for the drawings, but maybe didn’t get the complete training they needed from school. Would you be interested in a mentor that can help you with these questions? If your coworkers aren’t interested or don’t take the time to help you, where do you go? Would you be interested in being part of a group like this? A community of drafters and designers at different stages in their careers meet and support each other. A place to ask questions and seek support without the heat of someone looking down their nose at you. It’s something that I’m trying to put together, but something that I’m still a little unsure if there is a need for it. I’d like to hear opinions about it. Here is the link to where I'm building something like this. Drafting Workshop

Hi everyone. Thanks Alan for the invite.

You don’t have a "bandwidth" problem. You have a delegation problem. Stop trying to be the Architect, the Drafter, and the Detailer. If you are an Architectural Design firm owner, doing your own CAD work, you are bottlenecking your own growth. Period. Here is the reality: The market pays you for your Taste and your Skills. The market does not pay you premium rates to draw lines in software. Every minute you spend on documentation is a minute you are robbing from: - Closing the next deal. - Fixing a client crisis. - Expanding your portfolio. I solve the friction between Concept and Construction. You sketch. I draft. It gets built. No errors. No "design doesn't work" phone calls. No headaches. You can keep grinding 14-hour days trying to save a few bucks on drafting. Or you can buy back your time and double your design output. If you want to scale, let's talk. Leave a comment below. DM me to start getting your time back.
