Design + sketching tips, shortcuts + an indepth exploration of the process residential architect Russ Tyson uses to design awardwinning homes. Using a recently completed project as an example, we deconstruct the steps he takes with every new project from site analysis, to client engagement and budgeting and how he makes those allimportant first marks on the blank page.
Russ is an incredibly talented designer, illustrator and principal at Whitten Architects in Portland, Maine. See more of Russ' work here: https://www.whittenarchitects.com/
