  1. Thanks for that, youve helped make things clearer for me. So I suppose then if there is leeway for creativity from a visualisers perspective it would be more from the interior design route and therefore it would probably help someone working in vis to study interior design principles and techniques more then it would for them to look in depth at architectural principles ( other then studying the forms them selves of course). A quick question with that last paragraph are you referring to the differences in designing & visualising in any discipline or do you mean strictly in Arch Vis? It seems like this would make sense in all areas including within product design and even say the games industry. thanks very much
  2. I would like to know whether there is a role within architecture where one simply designs from an aesthetic stance, not keeping in mind as many of the technical constraints that a traditional architect may have? I come from a visual/graphic design background but not in architecture , recently I have found myself involved with creating architectural visualisations for a few small projects. My problem with seeing myself doing this long term is not having a role in actually designing the structures themselves. Can you have a role where you not only visualise the desired plans but also conceptualise the design itself ? I suppose it would be some kind of conceptual architect who plays a purely artistic role to assist maybe the more rigid bounds that some (not all)* architects may have.*
 I know the answer could be a flat: no go and get a degree in architecture. Not only are the financial and time constraints an obstacle to this but also I have never been the best technician. I have however excelled at creative tasks. Having to excel in technical proficiency is the reason I didn’t decide to pursue architecture in the first place so having to learn all the ins and outs of construction dose not seem like it would be the best avenue for me. ( I also just asked in a general architects forum for an opinion on the other side) Anyway thank you all for your time and I appreciate any advice on the matter.
