UDL Illustrator Masterclass

Description

The UDL Illustrator Masterclass is an intensive two-day program designed to build practical visualisation skills for architects, urban designers, and planning professionals. Through live, interactive sessions, participants learn how to craft high-quality urban maps, site plans, and vector-based analysis diagrams using Adobe Illustrator. Day 1 focuses on mastering mapping workflows—preparing urban base maps, integrating analysis layers, and using vector techniques to communicate spatial information with clarity and precision. Participants will also explore annotation design, legends, and post-production methods that enhance graphical storytelling and presentation quality.

On Day 2, the masterclass shifts to 3D-based visualisation, teaching participants how to transition models from SketchUp or CAD into Illustrato­r for clean, stylized axonometric and urban perspective diagrams. Learners develop methods to refine linework, highlight architectural details, represent urban elements, and produce polished, publication-ready vector visuals. Designed with real-world project applications in mind, this masterclass equips attendees with a complete workflow—from 2D mapping to 3D diagramming—supported by curated UDL resources, step-by-step manuals, and expert-led guidance.
