D. Skenderovic is an expert in using Auto CAD, Revit Architecture, Rhinoceros 3D, 3D Studio MAX, Piranesi, Vue xStream and Photoshop. He has managed the detailing of a wide range of architectural projects, and has trained staff for using Revit Architecture, managed the transition from AutoCAD-based workflow to Revit BIM. He has modeled, textured, and rendered hi-res shots for many architectural project proposals. As a 3D modeler, he has prepared numerous renderings of buildings (e.g. churches, hotels) and furniture, and also has extensive experience in creating fly-through animations.

Venkatesh constructs projects involving structural and mechanical design and drafting. He is skilled in the use of Skype and Mikogo to interact and share screens with clients, and often uses them to exchange details with colleagues. He is competent in the use of AutoCAD 2D and 3D as well as Revit and specializes in 3D modelling. He is also competent in ArchiCAD and Rhinoceros 3D.
He has created simulations for heating and ventilation systems using Revit. He also handles projects involving raster to vector conversions. One of the projects that he found most challenging was with Esplanade One Mall in Bhubaneswar for which he worked on the technology of facade and curtain wall glazing. He is also skilled in flying ribbon modelling which was also applied in this project.
Over the last few years he has worked on a number of projects for steel contractors and real estate clients in Australia. He has worked on product design for a leading global contractor in engineering and interior systems. He also specializes in conceptual modelling using grasshopper code and Tekla for steel modelling.
Sasaki has been handling R&D projects for cars and truck companies and design or modeling studios in Japan and China.
One of the most challenging projects that he has worked on was the business-class seat production, a 3D CAD-based project for Singapore Airlines’ new Airbus A380. It was a two-year commitment to incorporating international development standards from the UK, Singapore, and Japan.
His favorite software is Autodesk Alias, the mainstream surface modeler for styling and designing cars and trucks. He uses Alias for V2 jet designs, one of the primary software tools for designing and styling automotive and aircraft equipment. He mostly designs 3D models and does rendering and basic animation using Alias. He also uses Autodesk Showcase and Rhino for 3D modeling. He is competent in the use of Inventor. He also handles 3D CAD-based projects that require working on SolidWorks and Creo.
Mr. Sasaki has worked on-site in Japan, Malaysia, and China for a considerable number of years but he enjoys CAD consulting as well. He owns a 3D industrial design firm that also provides external design consulting.
Most of his clients are overseas, and he communicates with them via e-mail, phone calls and sometimes by Skype to share his Alias CAD-screen. He often has a kick-off meeting with a client. He believes that car companies generally dislike remote design work, so on-site work becomes more or less mandatory.
