Went out with my friend Jen to do some urban sketching, does a Lego city count as urban?

Understanding stories is like peeling back layers of an onion. Dive into the depths of design and discover how stories are built from layers and levels.

I try to have fun when I’m designing, I find the iPad makes it really easy to sketch in 3-D, as you can take a photograph of the building that you're working on and then you can draw on top of it. The client wants to have a new garden and the sketch was required to get the approval of the client.

I’ve just realised that Skool.com has an app to make it easier of me to stay in touch with members. This makes it much faster to get involved with the community. #vectorworks #jonathanpickup

new Vectorworks movies added to YouTube. Sometimes it's hard to know whether to use/or in your criteria. Lots of the computer programs use and/or and it's important to know the difference.

I was looking at the courses on my website today and I noticed that there are some fantastic courses but some of them need a bit of love. 2025 is going to see updates to those courses.

I was looking at the Vectorworks forum this morning and I noticed that I had answers to the questions on my YouTube channel, which made me think that it’s surprising how many questions I can answer from movies on my channel. If you’re using Vectorworks, be a subscriber.

I had a great comment about this YouTube movie I made. I thought manufactures like maxraft might like to have movie made if their products.

I do not use the standard Vectorworks title blocks, but they are really useful as a starting point for creating your own customers title block. This is the quickest way to create your own customised Vectorworks title block
