3D visualisation is where the real world is made virtual – a portrait of the future – and it has transformed the property industry; for developers and architects, the possibility to bring architectural plans to life. For estate agents, every day can now be show day – whether the buyer is in South Africa or South America'. ‘To understand 3D, an understanding of 2D is required: 2D refers to the two dimensions of length and width as shown in standard architectural plans. The third dimension adds height to the equation, so a sense of volume and space can be created. Therefore 3D visualisation is the process of taking a 2D drawing and creating a 3D model using 3D software. For architectural purposes, 2D plans are drawn up in programs like Autodesk AutoCAD and then rendered using software such as Autodesk 3ds Max and Autodesk Viz. The result is that clients can be shown virtual images of everything from what kind of materials can be used in construction to spatial dimensions and even the effect of natural light on a room at different times of day. Apart from being a design tool, 3D allows clients to see what they are buying into'. – Article taken from the May issue of ‘Property, The Property Magazine'.CG Modeling offers Property Developers and Architects high quality, photorealistic images created Architectural 3D images, we provide a service that you'd expect from a big, reputable company, the only difference is, ours comes at a fraction of the price.
