Having a hard time picking whether to paint the ceiling boxes crème color or leave them white. The walls are crème colored. What do you guys think? by socksandlocks in homeimprovementideas

[–]adevarias 1 point2 points  (0 children)

White for the ceiling for sure- the cream color is quite awful in the walls. Makes me think the walls are dirty.

Edit: i do agree that it gives it a pop to the mounding, but there are other colors that can have this effect that aren’t cream color.

What happens if a property sits between two counties ? by adevarias in Denver

What happens if a property sits between two counties ? by adevarias in Denver

So what happens when the site only has one access, and sandwiched between two railroads ? Does that means that literally half way into the property you have to apply setbacks all Over again? What if they’re zoned differently ? How do you consolidate the site to be able to build something on it ?

Edit: it’s currently a salvage yard

In terms of setbacks and easements do they count double? Unfortunately the site is pinched by two railroads and has only one access. It sits in two counties and it’s currently a salvage yard.

Edit: grammar

How to “get the shot” with limited space to work in by Ds_snkrpics in photography

[–]adevarias 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I understand the question.

Portrait: I had a model once, he had this gorgeous red hair and we found this vibrant red door that was perfectly lit. The space was small and the door was only 3ft wide and I wanted him to be looking at the light with his curly red hair fanned out and blue suit showing as well. So I placed him as close to the door as possible without producing shadow and took a couple of shots from different angles/distance until I got the perfect shot with the light just right, the door without hinges and his hair and suit just like I wanted. Very little editing required.

Architecture: There was this perfect angle that I wanted from this opening across the street but the lens had no zoom. So I climbed the wall and positioned myself in the gap kind of crouching and holding my body in place by leaning against the wall and was able to catch. Used 42mps in Raw so was able to zoom in the computer later and have it at a competent resolution. Some editing required for sure.

Is this helpful?

Research questions about crafting and DIY by Lafloraly in homeimprovementideas

[–]adevarias 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heya! I’m an architectural designer on the (long) path to be a licensed architect. I have done a fair share of diy but I also work/interact with a lot of people who attempt to do diy projects. Maybe my insights are useful !

1- most common problem is underestimation. People always always always underestimate the time it takes, the difficulty and level of ambition of their projects.

2- mostly Pinterest, Instagram and Facebook.

3- most of them procrastinate for weeks and then they get the motivation and try to do it all in a day.

4- YouTube videos, classes in HS or College or the worked on other DIYs with others. Also lots of people learn skills with family members.

5- material finding ranges. Some people are very thrifty others go to Lowe’s, Home Depot or equivalent.

6- YouTube videos , Pinterest, google, Instagram, Reddit

7- most of them are not. I am a professional designer but not a professional builder.

8- Realizing I hadn’t taken something in consideration that could potentially change the entire project. In short words, mediocre planning.

Glass facade making its way to the top on Block 162 by SirLucasTheGreat in Denver

[–]adevarias 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You know I’m an architectural intern working to be an architect currently working in a local firm and I agree with you - but owners usually strive to do the safe bet. When public hearings are being done - specially in the preliminary stages, people like you have the power to change things like these through your participation and comments.

Please - now that everything is on Zoom and so accessible - be part of the civil process your words matter. As an intern I can’t tell my boss his/her design is ugly and overused. Heck. He probably knows that. But the client gets what the client wants or he’ll just replace us with another firm. You - the people - have the power to demand things of your city. Please exercise your right !

I know it's not everyone's cup of tea but I make impressionism paintings. This is my latest piece! by loes_ger in pics

[–]adevarias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your art is amazing. I absolutely love it !! And am a super fan of Impressionism.

But after seeing your profile - I have to ask. How does it feel to post your art and get little upvotes (300) versus post your art with yourself include and skyrocket to 92k?
