Default Re: HKS taking RT architecture to the next level .......

In defense of the group at HKS....not that they need it.


IMO, HKS has always been doing some pretty interesting and cutting edge things. They did a presentation several years ago at the university I was attending and were pretty pivotal in my decision to pursue Arch. viz.

Arch Viz. firms all over the place have been doing RT for several years, so I think most people know that RT in arch viz is nothing new. I think where HKS is really knocking it out of the park, is with the scope of these projects. It's one thing to do RT of a blacony or the inside of a room, but HKS's projects are huge. I've seen several of their RT projects and they are very cool. Especially when seeing them on a large screen and not some rinky dink monitor. Its not fair to judge them by the stills that you see on their website. I drive by the under-construction stadium twice a day and it blows my mind to think of its complexity and the man hours that must have been put into developing that project. Design Developement, Marketing, Construction Documents, HKS Viz, etc. It will be interesting to see what you guys do with the unreal engine. Believe me when I say that there will be plenty of people watching.


The problem that we face is convincing the client to pay for it. I appreciate the offer "to correspond with anyone interested." Will anyone from your sales and marketing department be available? : D
