Summary

Portfolio: aclund3.artstation.com/

I am a Senior World Builder / 3D Environment Artist with a previous career in architecture and strengths in world building, spatial composition, and set dressing. I am also proficient in foliage/vegetation creation and placement, hard-surface sci-fi modular assets, prop modeling, PBR texturing, material authoring, and lighting.

I am all about crafting gameplay spaces that are visually compelling and functionally believable - whether through architecture and 'city' planning or natural wilderness. My goal is always to create rich and grounded worlds that leave players with an unforgettable experience.

    In addition to my previous duties, I Co-Project Managed a building envelope retrofit project at a 13-building resort in Hawaii, where BET&R served as the Project Architect. I was involved in and/or ran daily meetings with the Client and their Representatives, the General Contractor (and their Sub-Contractors), and product Manufacturers regarding all manners of construction, building envelope (skin), and architectural design decisions.

    Internally, I also began to co-manage the Cladding Department.

    June 2012 - April 2015

    In addition to my previous duties, I designed entire building envelope systems (roofing, cladding, waterproofing, etc.) for construction and coordinated those designs with Client, Architect, General Contractor, and product Manufacturers.

    At this time I also began internally managing the CAD and Architecture Departments, organizing and facilitating section/department meetings as the Director of Graphics for BET&R. I created and established new protocol for BET&R drawings to comply with the National CAD Standard. I also oversaw the task force which defined expectations for Design and Document Production standards for BET&R as a whole.

    Seattle, United States of America
    June 2010 - June 2012

    In addition to my previous duties, I went on-site as a field building envelope technologist/monitor for ongoing active construction. I wrote daily field reports based upon observations as built conditions related to design documents and coordinated design expectations and construction realities between Client, Architect, General Contractor and their Sub-Contractors.

  • CAD Specialist at BET&R
    Seattle, United States of America
    June 2007 - June 2010

    From 2007-2009 I was an intern at Building Envelope Technology & Research (BET&R) creating isometric, plan, elevation, perspective, and sketch drawings for construction drawing sets while attending the University of Washington for Architectural Studies.

    Following graduation in 2009, I came on full-time and designed building envelope (skin) solutions. I also assisted with on-site building system failure forensic investigations and office IT work.
