Architectural Gadgets

Monitors are essential tools for every designer or architect. They allow us to see our designs at their finest and give us a clear view of the final outcome. The quality of the monitor plays a huge role in the final outcome of the project.
While selecting a monitor for professional work as an architect or a designer, one needs to consider many technical aspects from the quality of images, resolution, contrast, brightness, and performance while working for long hours amongst other factors related to appearance and design.
This might be a little daunting for people buying a new monitor for the first time or even one who is confused by the varieties available in the market that all look the same!
Even if there is a budget constraint, this list gives you the best options to do the job. Below we give you some more details and pointers that will help you in your next purchase:
<h2>Important Points to Consider Before Buying a Monitor for Architectural Work</h2>
Are you considering buying a monitor for your architectural work? There is an array of options available in the market today. The choice of the monitor depends on the type of work and personal requirements. For monitors that are apt for architectural work, the following are a few important points or factors one should consider –
Screen size
It is ideal to have large screen sizes for architectural work. One can prefer to opt for screen sizes of over 15 inches, preference should be given to monitor sizes between 27 to 32 inches. The benefit of a larger screen is enhanced productivity, by allowing space for multi-tasking.
Some monitors provide one with an option to opt for wider aspect ratios, such as ultrawide monitors with an aspect ratio of 21:9 and superwide monitors with an aspect ratio of 32:9. These help in keeping multiple applications open at the same time.
Curved or Plain Monitor?
Curved monitors when compared with plain monitors are very immersive and provide an enhanced experience to the users. For professionals working in the architecture or design domain, where multi-tasking is usually required, a curved monitor provides an edge. The downside of curved monitors is that they are heavy on the pocket as compared to the plain monitors.
In addition to providing an immersive experience, curved screens are comfortable for your eyes. It provides a wider field of vision, thus displaying everything all at once. While there are advantages to having a curved monitor screen, choosing the type of monitor would be determined by personal preferences, usage and the budget.
Resolution
For a sharper display with enhanced clarity, one should opt for higher resolution monitors. The most common resolution for monitors is Full HD or 1080p i.e., 1920x1080 pixels, and for most architectural work this resolution is ideal. However, if there is a requirement for a clearer display, one can go in for resolutions such as – 2560x1440 pixels (2K) or 3840x2160 pixels (4K). A higher resolution can help in viewing details of the drawings or renders in more detail.
How about a 4k Monitor?
4K technology refers to the resolution of screens that are about four times the resolution of Full HD screens. 4K monitors are gradually becoming a norm with the screen resolution. There are two types of 4K Monitors –
<ul>
<li>4K UHD: 3840x2160 pixels</li>
<li>DCI 4K: 4096x2160 pixels</li>
</ul>
While both types of 4K monitors give a sharp display as compared to its predecessor, DCI 4K is adopted by people who require more display accuracy. For a profession such as architecture, one needs a monitor that provides high colour accuracy. One should definitely opt for a 4K monitor screen with foresight for future trends and enhanced work experience.
Ergonomics and Comfort
Ergonomics and comfort are important factors to consider when looking for monitors, as most of the time, the architectural work is both effort and time-intensive. A monitor should be such that it provides an array of adjustments like the angle and height of the screen. The adjustments ensure that a person can adjust the monitor according to their personal requirements to provide an ergonomically comfortable experience. One can even look for features for visual comfort like anti-glare output, blue-light reduction, task-oriented viewing modes, etc.
Types of monitor ports
There are various types of input, output and connector ports that are integrated with the monitors. The types of monitor ports include-
<ul>
<li>VGA (Video Graphics Array) Port or D-Sub port:</li>
</ul>
These ports are usually available on older monitor models and very rarely found on newer models for compatibility reasons. This port doesn’t support audio.
<ul>
<li>DVI (Digital Video Interface) Port:</li>
</ul>
These are a little better when compared with VGA ports, as they can produce a 1080p display stably. This type of port also doesn’t support audio.
<ul>
<li>HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) Port:</li>
</ul>
HDMI ports have become commonplace when it comes to monitor ports. These can transmit both audio and video easily. These are even easier to set up and offer wider compatibility.
<ul>
<li>Display Port:</li>
</ul>
These are highly optimized for modern day monitors. It also supports both audio and video formats, in addition, offers superior display output.
Bonus Tip- One should opt for monitors that have HDMI and Display ports for maximum compatibility with other devices.

5 Best Budget Monitors for Architects and Designers 2022

A good budget laptop is essential for architecture students. The key features include long battery life, lightweight, portable and powerful performance. The architecture field requires a lot of creativity, design thinking, and problem-solving. These skills are often learned through hands-on experience. This means that architects spend a large amount of time using their laptops.
It is rightly said that a man is only as good as his tools. So, unlock your potential with these highly efficient laptops that will boost your performance and save you time while you’re at it. This is made possible with the latest selection of technology employed for the very purpose of helping create elevated visuals and graphics and designed to give you an undisturbed workflow.
Since architectural projects revolve around computer-aided drawing and the use of multiple software simultaneously, this list will help you choose the best-suited affordable laptop for you. So, without wasting any more time let's uncover some tips that will guide you in your next purchase.
<h2>Why you should buy a Laptop over a Desktop?</h2>
Are you confused between choosing a laptop over a desktop or vice versa? The confusion is quite obvious as we do not buy a laptop or desktop very frequently. And, for students of architecture, it becomes all the more important to consider and factor in a lot of variables while making the choice. Following are a few reasons that make laptops a better choice over desktops for architectural students –
<ul>
<li>Laptops are compact machines that do not require additional space setup, therefore, making them an ideal choice for students.</li>
<li>Today, laptops are powerhouses of enhanced performance, owing to the powerful hardware.</li>
<li>The biggest advantage is that it is portable and one can work from practically anywhere.</li>
<li>With enhanced battery backups, one can easily work even in case of a power cut or failure; this is not a possibility with desktops.</li>
<li>Laptops don’t require component set up before starting, unlike desktops.</li>
</ul>
Students should put their money into something practical yet long-lasting. Therefore, in addition to the above points, there are personal requirements that one should use as a yardstick while drawing comparisons. Going in for a laptop is just the first step of the entire process of buying a device. Other things that one should give due importance to are the operating system available and other specifications such as processor, RAM, GPU, battery life, storage, ports, compatibility, etc.
<h2>Operating System (Windows vs macOS)</h2>
Choosing the Operating system is one of the preliminary factors when looking for a choosing a laptop or a desktop. The two widely used operating systems are windows and macOS. Following are some pointers to help you weigh the pros and cons of both operating systems –
<ul>
<li>Windows is a more prevalent operating system, thus making it a more viable option.</li>
<li>Looking at the range of software and applications, almost most of them are available for windows as against the macOS.</li>
<li>macOS is sought to be more intuitive when compared with windows.</li>
<li>Both the operating systems are user-friendly.</li>
<li>Windows offers a compatible environment to help users operate old versions of software on new devices.</li>
<li>Windows is more susceptible to virus and spyware attacks when compared with macOS.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Specifications that one must consider while choosing a laptop –</h2>
<ul>
<li>CPU Processor: For seamless working, architecture students should prefer choosing processors like Core i5, Ryzen 5 and above.</li>
<li>RAM: It is advisable to go in for a higher Ram (8GB and higher) for efficient and seamless working.</li>
<li>GPU (Graphics Processing Units): Architecture involves high-intensity graphic work; thus, the laptop or desktop must preferably have a high-end graphics card for incessant working. For a stringent budget, one should consider an integrated graphic card, however, for higher performance, a discreet graphics card should be given preference.</li>
<li>Storage: Apt storage should be one of the primary considerations while choosing a laptop or desktop. There are numerous options available for storage volumes, starting from 256 GB. However, it is advised that one chooses a machine with an internal storage of 512 GB and above. In addition, choosing the type of storage (Hard Disk Drives and Solid State Drives) is equally important. SSDs are preferred as they offer enhanced speed and are quieter when compared with HDDs.</li>
<li>Display and Resolution: For architectural students, the resolution and quality of the display are important factors to consider. Therefore, they should consider opting for an IPS screen with a resolution of 1920 x 1080p (Full HD). These days laptops with higher resolutions [2560 x 1600, 3200 x 1800 and 3840 x 2160 (4K)] are also available, but a full HD display would aid in all the functions for students unless they are willing to go in for high-resolution configurations.</li>
<li>Screen Size: For students of architecture, it is recommended that they opt for bigger screen sizes (15” and above).</li>
<li>USB ports: Today, the number of USB ports available in a laptop is also a considerable factor to consider, as most accessories require USB ports. In addition, one should also look for the type of USB port available in a laptop. It is advisable that one should opt for a laptop that has at least one USB 3.0 and USB C port.</li>
<li>Battery Life: For students, every minute is important and they can’t afford to waste a lot of time searching for charging sockets or waiting for backup in case of power loss. Therefore, it is advisable that the laptop has a battery life of 8 hours and above.</li>
<li>Connectivity: Connectivity over an internet connection and support for wireless connections should be the primary considerations. One should go in for a laptop that supports 4G LTE or 5G network. For better wireless connectivity, look for devices that support Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5 technology.</li>
</ul>
