ARCHITECTURAL REPRESENTATION – Photoshop Materials & Texture Workflow

In this tutorial, we explore architectural representation techniques using Adobe Photoshop, focusing on how materials, textures, and visual layering can be used to communicate architectural ideas and drawings. Rather than focusing on a specific project type, this workflow introduces general techniques for transforming architectural drawings into compelling visual representations through graphic composition, tonal hierarchy, and material application. Topics covered: • Importing architectural drawings into Photoshop • Applying materials and textures • Building visual depth through layering • Using masks and blending techniques • Enhancing architectural representation quality Software used: • Adobe Photoshop • Compatible architectural line work from Rhino / Illustrator workflows This tutorial is part of Londie Architectural Studio, an educational platform focused on architecture, graphics, spatial thinking, and visual representation techniques.
