Give me 6.25 Minutes and I'll improve your Urban Diagram by 180%

Most urban analysis presentations look bad — not because the thinking is weak, but because the visual language is unclear.

In this video, I break down a practical, presentation-ready workflow using Photoshop + Google Earth to create clear, layered urban plans that architecture students can actually use for:

Urban study sheets

Site analysis diagrams

Context mapping

Before–after comparisons

Competition & portfolio presentations

This is not theory.
This is about visual clarity, hierarchy, and communication.

What you’ll learn in this video:

How to extract usable base maps from Google Earth

Cleaning satellite imagery for presentation use

Creating readable road networks, blocks, and zones

Highlighting buildings, movement, and influence radii

Color-coding logic that doesn’t look childish

Turning messy data into a sharp urban plan graphic

Everything shown here is architecture-studio tested — the kind of workflow that actually survives juries and reviews.

Who this video is for:

Architecture students (urban design, thesis, competitions)

Anyone struggling to present site analysis clearly

Designers who want their drawings to look intentional, not accidental

If your urban sheets currently look overcrowded, flat, or confusing — this video fixes that.

Tools used:

Adobe Photoshop
