Even Today, I see people preferring
drawing or
sketching the house and it's design. If you may think that CAD software are too much expensive, the
competition of outsourcing today gives CAD in lower rates than before.
But, if only CAD is sufficient to build my
home,
why should you prefer Architectural Visualization? Why prefer 3D over 2D? Both of them are used in
Interior
Design, Exterior Design and Landscape. It may seem at first that you are wasting money over 3D modelling
and 3D
rendering, but it is not so.
Here's 10 Reasons you should prefer Architecture Visualization
As, 3D Modelling is based on the CAD software, the precision of CAD continues to move forward. Not only, does it
take
the floor and elevation dimensions in account, 3D Visualization takes into consideration all the
X, Y
and Z axis dimensions of the object. Hence, even furniture that has a miniscule size, can be
placed
correctly in the Architectural Visualization. Large scale projects require optimal preciseness,
and
henceforth these 3D techniques are almost mandatory for these type of architecture
builds.
- Material and Color Selection
Some architects or clients choose the materials and colours before
starting
the construction work. However, most of them do not have an idea of what to choose for better
looks or
less cost. 3D renders can provide the texture files of the materials used and can also provide
the RGB
value/ Color naming of the colours used in the images. Hence, the clients have the flexibility
to choose
the materials/ colours/ panelling and cladding of their choice.
One of the major advantages of 3D Visualization is furniture
selection. When
the home builder is going to choose a furniture, they cannot simply choose the furniture that
enhances
the look and functionality. The applications that do Architecture Visualization have a wide
variety
of furniture prebuilt, that keeps every aspect in mind. Even if they do not have some kind of
furniture,
it can be built using furniture modelling.
There is a variety of false ceiling considering the size,
shape and
materials of them. It gets cumbersome to go through each option and select one that
optimizes
your ROI. Also, the more complex the design of false ceiling is, the ROI may decrease
accordingly because the cost increases. Using 3D, one can recreate the false ceilings of
desire
and shorten the wide range of selection to the optimal set of ceilings they want to go
with.
Furthermore, 3D allows user to choose the appropriate amount of glossiness/ reflection
of the
materials.
- Easy Amendments and Less Errors
From the very
beginning of the design process, 3D visualisation makes it straightforward to spot
flaws and
design problems that may be quickly fixed or replaced with a suitable alternative.
3D
rendering and architectural visualisation can be used to examine building or
structural
plans before they are built. Finalisation of to-be-used materials, reducing design
flaws,
upgrading or downgrading a design, avoiding clashes or conflicts in the design,
assessing
its sustainability, and so on can all benefit from such notions.
- Effortless Government Approvals
Your project's acceptance is determined by how well
you
convey your project model. Traditional means of presentation, such as PowerPoint
presentations and detailed sketches, were less efficient before the arrival of
3D
Visuals. Because the structures and developments are 'uncertain,' local
governments
frequently reject them. The use of 3D animation and visualisation creates an
accurate
and realistic model that eliminates ambiguity and increases the likelihood of
public
acceptance.
- Landscaping /
Surroundings
Not sure what and where the plantations will
be done
in your new home? Eliminate the confusion, by choosing the right
plantations
with their placement in 3D Rendering.
Houses can have different surroundings based
on
different locations. Surroundings also impact the layout of the house.
As usual,
3D will come to aid for this task.
- Flexibility
According
to your Needs
Depending on your need of high
quality, speedy
rendering or less budget; you can outsource the software
accordingly.
Modelling software like Revit, Sketchup and 3ds Max are
industry
standard. Similarly, rendering software like V-Ray, Lumion,
Corona,
Enscape provides wide range of functionality. There are some
software
like Cedreo and Sweet home 3D, which do not even need expertise
in
architecture.
- Future
Ready
with AR and VR
Architects
can now construct designs that the client can not only see
but also
live in. 3D models are taken to the next level with AR and
VR. Users
can walk through the design, examine every element of the
building,
sense its actual dimensions (height, width, etc. ), explore
a
specific space at different times of the day, and so on,
using these
technologies. This provides more clarity, which can help
architects
win over clients while also assisting clients in making the
best
option possible.
The value that Architectural
Visualization provides, is much higher than it's
cost. It
doesn’t matter if the project is a huge one or a minor one,
all the
above mentioned points apply to both; giving a better
value.
The
technology utilised for 3D rendering has seen a significant cost
reduction in recent years. Because most people now have access
to this
technology, it is a cost-effective solution.
