6. Learning Objectives Save people’s time and energy. Learn more effective and efficient methods. Make better use of the planet’s resources. Greener methods as a natural bi-product of a better design and communication process.

7. “Drawing with SketchUp” Jim Leggitt, FAIA 1PM - TODAY Denver Art Museum Sharp Auditorium Earn 1 AIA / CES Credit

8. Design & Construction communication is still primarily a paper-based system. Unnecessarily slows and confuses the design/build process. One of the worst causes is the government. Another is architects. PROGRAMDESIGNDEFINEBUILDMANAGE

9. Carbon Footprint of Paper Why does paper pollution matter? Pulp and paper is the third largest industrial polluter to air, water and land in both Canada and the United States, and releases over a hundred million kg of toxic pollution per year. National Pollutant Release Inventory, 1996

10. Carbon Footprint of Effect of Paper Process Paper is not the most efficient medium of communication. Gaining Clarity is Everything. travel back & forthloss of time & effort

13. The word “tekth” literally means to put together, weave or connect. tekth is the Indo European root word for art, architecture, building and technology.

14. I own the entire process Looking for better efficiencies. Paper communication is a big problem. Paper can slow and confuse process. PROGRAMDESIGNDEFINEBUILDMANAGE

18. Consider the Cherry Tree

19. Is very efficient, creates no waste

20. Consider the Cherry Tree Is very efficient, creates no waste Creates food for people, birds, insects, etc.

21. Consider the Cherry Tree Is very efficient, creates no waste Creates food for people, birds, insects, etc. Produces oxygen and cleans the air.

22. Consider the Cherry Tree Is very efficient, creates no waste Creates food for people, birds, insects, etc. Produces oxygen and cleans the air. Tree nourishes everything around it.

23. Consider the Cherry Tree Is very efficient, creates no waste Creates food for people, birds, insects, etc. Produces oxygen and cleans the air. Tree nourishes everything around it. Materials decompose and breakdown.

24. Consider the Cherry Tree A Perfect Design Can we improve our methods to be more waste free like the cherry tree?

25. Paperless Design & Build Better efficiencies. Less effort. Gain better clarity. PROGRAMDESIGNDEFINEBUILDMANAGE

26. Computer as Paper

27. Pen Screens & Pen Tablets Pen-based computing

28. Slate & Tablet PCs

29. Smart Phones

30. What is paper solution for pen devices? A solution that puts all my information in one place. Not only see it, but also design and create on top of it. Needs to be as easy as paper.   New form of yellow trace and sketchbook. 

31. What are the requirements my sketchbook? See CAD drawings (particularly AutoCAD & ARRIS) See 3D Models (particularly SketchUp & ARRIS) Capture Google Earth views See Adobe PDF files See Microsoft Office Files (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) See Digital Photos See Paper Scans Capture Website & Computer Information        

32. I need design tools. Sketch Make Notes Markup & Redline Copy & Paste Images and Text    

33. I need to easily share my sketchbook. Present it Share it Print it    Interact with others

34. Low cost design solution Free universal viewer & design toolLow cost collaboration service

35. Case studies in paperless methods Corbu in the woods Wesley Center Master Plan Walden Point Apartments Fire Marshal video Hibiscus shopping VPI Scout turntable iPhone video punchlist video       

36. New paperless methods are helping us improve every step of the way. PROGRAMDESIGNDEFINEBUILDMANAGE
