Architosh invitation for Mac Firm Profiles: 'Support the Cause'

Architosh has a new story "highlighting" an architecture firm in Austin, Texas. However, that only scratches the surface of what we really want to do.

Publishing Firm Profiles - Being Celebrated as Leading the Way with Technology

Architosh is announcing an open invitation to publish a lavish firm profile on your firm. All AEC and Design Firms are invited to participate and we will publish as many stories as possible in the order in which we receive qualifications and descriptions.

We are interested in celebrating the use of Macintosh technology in AEC and Design. We want to hear about—and so do all the other readers on this site—the special things you do with computer technology in your practice. Here are the 'focus points' of Firm Profiles:

• Feature inventive and cutting-edge use of computer technology

• Showcase your firm's technological prowess

• Bring attention to your firm's differentiating benefits

• Share concepts and ideas on the use of technology to Architosh readers

Simple Criteria for FP Consideration

To be considered for this publication opportunity your firm must use Macintosh technology (hardware & software) but may be completely cross-platform. We are interested in all uses of technology regardless of platform, as outlined in the focus points above.

We are very interested in some particular aspects of computing in AEC and Design:

• Cost Benefits of Macintosh Deployment

• Creative Uses and Integration of Macs (With Unix,Windows & Palm)

• 3D and Dynamic Media Use (Animation, Motion Graphics, Video, VR)

• General Design Business Computing (Approaches in a Windows world)

• Use of the Web (Sites, Extranets, Etc.)

 

Helping Support the Cause

By taking part in a Firm Profile you help us help the Macintosh in CAD/3D/AEC. This is a noble cause because the Macintosh platform has distinctive abilities and advantages...and a tradition of creative excellence! We want to continue that tradition.

This also helps educate others, including your Mac professional colleagues about the tools, tricks and digital craft of your profession. And Architosh wants you to know that we also want to craft published material that is of benefit to your firm's marketing and public relations needs. To that end, we will be exploring this Firm Profile Web process together, helping to work toward mutual ends.

Contact Us

We will be contacting some of you but ask that interested firms or individual professionals contact Architosh editor, Anthony Frausto-Robledo, B.Arch., at afrausto@architosh.com with any comments or suggestions and consideration about the program.

Thanks for supporting Macintosh!
