In Evolving World Designers Should Learn CAD

Every Architect and Graphic Designer should learn CAD/CAM and 3D Modeling basics.

I would like to hear from companies; what if they make prototyping products easier with CAD/CAM or 3D modeling softwares. I know it's seem hard to measure or calculate the architecture, engineering and machinery production process when you need to get them all together. But i think we should get a solid perspective that we should achieve more realistic engineering apps or softwares to make CAD/CAM and 3D design make understandable... Because these areas are hard to prototyping products with standart softwares. So I am gonna prefer mobile and web platforms rather than desktop softwares and complex applications on PC.

 As a Graphic Designer we need to use 3D softwares sometimes and we prefer these kind of apps for our daily needs. If we took that in a realistic way; we are customers and we need a support platform or forum for our problems. When we stuck in a subject that we can't solve with ourselves, you'd search a forum or support website for it. If companies provide these kind of platforms with their software package i think they could successful to touch their customers hearths. They could get more feedback and comment or listen their customers thoughts about their softwares. Maybe it would be a cloud platform that customers could keep their files on there or they can provide a forum to keep customers get inform and busy with other app users. So they won't need to find other social platform, forum or support center. CAD/CAM, 3D Modeling and Engineering are seem good design areas for my opinion. People could use these areas softwares to produce 3D forms, elements or they could check blueprints for prototyping their projects or design ideas. As a conclusion we should be open minded about that world is changing and our occupation roles, benefits and problems are changing too. So we need these softwares too...

Also we are decision makers and sometimes we are volunteering about when someone needs a help. I hope we could deliver more clean and healthier working place to newcomers to that area. I am proud of having a chance to make my own design ideas prototypes with 3D softwares. 3D Printers are also useful at most of offices in our country. I believe that people would like to have at least one 3D printer for each of their house in near future. We could evaluate our design ideas if we get one 3D printer at our home. But technology brings responsibility and education too. As a matter of fact it's a contemporary need that everyone should learn how to use these machines. How to use means; people should know that  how these machines could be used for. So people could realize what these softwares and machines bring to our lifecycle. They could understand that these machines makes our work process easier with their specifications.

As a conclusion; mass education and further knowledge is another part of our user responsiblity role. Getting stuck in a hard position doesn't mean that work won't go on in a roadmap that we have already mentioned. It needs to be done in a short period only. And that making us nervous about if we could finish it or not. We have to keep doing whatever our work needs to be done.  Our collabs only wants to hear good news from us. So we should be rely on ourselves. It'd be awkward if we won't use these machines or softwares, but awkward too if we'd leave them behind of us. Sometimes they are part of us and generally we finish our work with them. But we proud of that we did all the working process all alone. What we must to do? We must accept that everyone needs this kind of machine or software. So starting their working career as a designer or engineer or whatever they want. They will get success if they keep with that effort and working. So have a good time with these products.

Best, Sertac.
