MORE TIME DESIGNING On a superficial level, what architects do is create drawings of buildings to communicate to others how to build those buildings. But construction drawings are simply the most tangible evidence of architects' intangible contribution to society: the art and science of design.

LIGHTING THE SCENE IN NORWAY In Norway, the Land of the Northern Lights, a small computer graphics company is wowing clients with dazzling visualizations and photographic lighting simulations. Since its inception, the company has relied primarily on the Lightscape rendering system. The visualization firm, curiously named Placebo Effects, is partly owned by the large company Dark-Gruppen, whose divisions provide a range of design consulting services. Placebo Effects provides computer graphics services to Dark-Architects and others in the Norwegian design and architecture community.
