The story about Visualizing Architecture with Alex Hogrefe - PART 1

[@theodoreroosevelt7471]

I still remember the day I bumped into his blog back in 2012. It was like finding a treasure. Alex hogrefe changed the way architecture students and architects work forever, he deserves some sort of medal, seriously!

[@LearnUpstairs]

Yes, he does! During our conversation, we mentioned how much of an influence he has been and still is to the architecture community. But I'm not sure he knows how massive the impact is, the guy is a legend! I think I only discovered his blog in 2015

@@LearnUpstairs I’m from Paris btw and everyone is familiar with his work here

[@ShowItBetter]

Finally we met the legend!!

[@LearnUpstairs]

The one and only!

Check out colour and light by James Gurney, for artistic sensitivity

I didn't know nothing about Alex Hogrefe until this video. I watched everything on his webpage right after this and to be honest: I think Alex is the GOAT of architecture visualization. My life changed completely today. Thank you so much for making this happen Upstairs and Show It Better!

[@LearnUpstairs]

That's the exact same feeling I had back then when I discovered his blog. I'm glad we could bring him to the eyes of new people. Appreciate the feedback, Juan!

A legend for all architects to be inspired by.

Guys, you've been doing a great work together! 🇧🇷🇨🇴 Upstairs and Show It Better are such a great duo! Thanks ever so much for all the content. It was an amazing interview. And I loved the video edition.

[@LearnUpstairs]

Thank you, Kern! This has been a guest that we wanted to talk to for a long time, I'm so happy to finally share this conversation with the community.

[@mariojfrias]

I learnt of this interview that the best way to approach to archviz is from the observation of the real world, to be curious about reflections and shadows.

[@TN3DStudio]

Alex is a legend. It's great that you guys got him for an interview🙌

[@JayMikeWillingham]

I love this interview; Alex spoke to my soul on this one. He reinforced my passion for Arch Viz.

[@vv8249]

This kind of content truly helps and inspires us, architecture students! Thank you so much! ❤

[@hugh8755]

I struggled with creating my portfolio until I met Alex Hogrefe's tutorials. Thanks!

[@pandupujo3917]

Damn. The legendary Alex Hogrefe

[@ZigonArchitecture]

Damn, this is so inspiring! Thanks for sharing Alex. The OG of Archviz.

[@marcusma8995]

True legend for all young architects under 30. Those insane visualization skills always cover up my bad designs.....

[@DesignItGreen]

This was an awesome video to see, seeing the three people who inspired me to get better in this field all talk at the same time is so cool!

[@creativemastersjm]

Thank you so much for this interview, it was very informative. I find I could relate to 90% of the things you are speaking about. I also graduated with a Master of Architecture however my passion was always driven by visualization. For me, I find that Arch Viz is a "weird" grey area as it relates to architecture. Arch Viz finds itself lodged between the industries of Architecture, Design, Film/Animation, Video Games, Environment Art etc. It's such a crazy overlap.

[@AyrtonVivanco97]

Jesus Christ! What a pleasure to listen to this legend 🙌🏼

[@everydaykai]

My first teacher!

[@MINECRAFTandSEB]

I look at reflections everywhere, and sometimes in real life I see things and feel like they could have been rendered better/more realistically

[@xianzhu3081]

!!! Alex Hogrefe !!! The torchbearer

[@MINECRAFTandSEB]

cant believe he uses sketchup tho.... isnt sketchup super laggy with highly detailed models? I find rhino much smoother but maybe im wrong?

[@zacharyebbers5152]

Why are his books all turned around haha?

[@LearnUpstairs]

Maybe those are secret books about architectural visualization 👀

[@Landphoo]

Good morning guy! Do you know How much salary for a visualizing architecture?

[@eduardorozo7915]
