Urban Design Associates has a long history of communicating architectural and urban design ideas through drawing. Since our formation in the early 1960s, we have always produced our own architectural illustrations. Many of our projects include a dynamic public process and the ability to quickly and clearly portray our ideas in that setting is essential. Because an illustrator works alongside our designers, the development of ideas naturally f lows from plans, sections, and elevations into three-dimensional visualization. In 1998, we formed the UDA Illustration Studio and assembled a team of artists to expand the sophistication and range of media we could offer. Since then, we have led the market creating over 3,000 illustrations for a wide range of projects all over the world while continuing to innovate and evolve the craft of architectural illustration.
