So you made a book to look up dimensions (whatever the hell that means), hold stupid facts (it's clearly not big enough) and for sketching in scale (as if sketches had to be in scale, or in the scale you specify). We are tired of looking up dimensions, stupid facts, and sketching out of scale. I can imagine an architectural version that would automatically translate a photo of your sketches to the right scale to be used as an underlay in Sketchup/ Autocad/ Rhino/ 3dsMax/ etc Lastly, have you thought about how it might sync up to my digital documents? This might be too complicated, but take a look at what evernote does: Forget the Sejima-esque fluff, just give me ADA / egress / structural sizing charts / other important dimensions. However, if you envision it being used by actual architects you should lose those 30 pages or condense only the really important stuff to 2 or 3 pages, or the backs of the covers, or a fold-out. Now, if that is your target demographic you should play up the cute stuff. On the topic of the reference pages: I dont want this to come off as rude but it looks like a book designed for non-architects who want to give the impression that they are hip with architecture. Since the scales are nesting, why not keep the same grid on each page and include a unobtrusive scale reference in the corner of each page? (ie use one for 1/16", two dots 1/8", etc) Im going to have to agree with Joseph's comments above regarding the scale. I think it is a great idea overall, and it looks like you've condensed some very practical information into your reference section. These are minor points, and shouldn't take away from anything you've done. (I'm entirely optimistic about your kickstarter, there should be a future to this) I know some references might be useful for each book, but do I really need a list of 100 schools, firms & readings in every sketchbook? I don't even think I need it in the first one! Maybe offer a 3-pack in the future and only include references in one of the 3. I'd actually be more on board with it if the bold annotations were page numbers and I could reference my scattered sketches like a real set of drawings.Īnother quick point, If I'm one of those folks who uses multiple sketchbooks (let's say I carry one in my bag for each ongoing project), I'll have 30 redundant pages for every sketchbook I buy. If I use the scales as intended, I now either need a separate sketchbook for each project, or have the sketches remain scattered with no means of reference. Having different sized, subtle dot grids is great, but that annotation is a big sore spot for me. If I'm going to sketch at different scales, I either have to flip half way through the book, or have this big bold 1/16" = 1' staring at me. I feel like you've limited my possibilities dramatically. The problem I'm having is that you've determined scales for the pages. I'd be all over this if I were in my 3rd or 4th year of undergrad. I know it's not for me, but I really enjoy the idea, and think it could be great for others, particularly students after their first year or two.

Once the campaign ends, the products are set to produce and ship to all backers by April 2021. They are hopeful to see an increase in pledges with the help of Funded Today and their team. Hell Architect is available to back now on Kickstarter. If you ignore their comfort levels, not only will you lose your main source of income, but also enable their quick redemption.

There are some torture devices given to your disposal, which will help you squeeze some suffering out of every sinful soul - though you have to keep in mind, that in hell nothing is free and even these lost souls need to eat, drink and sleep. You play as a Hell Manager and together with some sinners you begin the development of 9 circles of hell. You'll not only squeeze as much suffering as you can out of sinners, but also gain the approval of the greatest devils in hell, including Lucifer himself, who will evaluate not only your work but also your sense of aesthetics and thriftiness. Your task here is to develop a new prison for lost souls, under the watchful eye of Lilith from HR and Frank - our Hell Manager. Hell Architect is a game where you can create and manage your own hell. They have brought on Funded Today to help bring their product to a wider audience and increase pledges for the duration of the campaign. Włocławek Poland - Janu/FundedToday/ - Hell Architect has just launched on Kickstarter.
