Where can I find a picture of an original historical architecture plan?

tejci asked:


I have an assignment at my architecture school to find a copy or a photogrphy of an architecture plan (construction of a building) older than the era between 750 ac - 1250 ac
This plans are really rare and hard to find (they burned them all because the constuction of buildings was a highly protected secret then), I’ve been searching for 2 days and I’m really desperate.

There are some maps in museum of Louvre but they are not exhibited and are not available for public.


What to study after Computer Science to focus on Architecture?

the rain baron asked:


I always wanted to be an architect, but I couldn’t accepted to the architecture faculties and I’ve started studying Computer Science with a hope on my mind of satisfaction. I am now on my senior year and I really don’t think that I’ll be able to study and work on Computer Science and likewise studies. Now I am searching for some kind of masters programme based on Architecture. A branch between Engineering, Architecture and Computing. I just want to work on architecture somehow.
I’ll be glad if someone do have an idea or an experience about the issue I am dealing with..
Thanks for your help already..
It’s not the computer architecture & design..
It’s the ‘Architecture’ as its own…
I believe that it is too late to retry on studying architecture since I’m already about completed my education on Computer Science. What I want is that ‘the branch’ which will sustain me a job which includes semi-architecture and semi-computer science. Just like when you’re a cs graduate and you take an mba, and you may work like a manager in a computing service (or data processing)..
I wondered if there is a masters programme which helps me to get some basic architecture courses and sets some of the cs courses as prerequisites, technically..
I dont know if there are any masters programme named (just making up) Computational Design or Computer based architecture or anything based on them..
thanks again.

Can Architecture work in a 3d modeling program like Blender translate to CAD experience?

line429 asked:


I’m thinking about returning to school for an Architecture degree. I used 3ds Max when I was in school and I’m currently teaching myself Blender. Would a firm look for experience in a specific CAD program, or would something created in Blender carry as much weight?
