3D Home Tour

Posted in General, architecture, baths, kitchens at 3:55 pm by Administrator

Although it takes some time to put a 3D virtual home tour together, it is a great visual tool. This video clip is fairly typical of the walk-through Architectural Design & Cabinet provides for our clients who chose the Gold 3-D design Portfolio service option. This design option can also be found at www.acfavorites.com

This presentation is generally a work in progress as we refine the details of the home to meet our clients needs, lifestyle and inspirations. Our goal is to review the design details until we have a reasonable representation of a home before it is built and before changes become more difficult and costly.

Some disclaimers:
Visual tours are part of the design process and are not final construction documents. There are omissions and some errors in this 3-D presentation. The graphics are not picture perfect, as file size and rendering time for web presentations have some limitations. The in office presentation graphics are of better quality and can often be edited and revised during the consultation.

Wonderful evaluation tool:
The 3-D portfolio is a fabulous tool to convey and explore ideas and concepts that are very difficult to “see” in 2-D plans. It is extremely valuable in finding 2-D plan errors and omissions, evaluating design choices and making visually informed decisions.

We enjoy the tools of our trade and our work, we highly recommend this low cost residential BIM option (building information modeling).

Would love to hear your comments.
