3D - 2

Architectural Computer Renderings?

Hello Everyone, I am an architecture student working with an architecture firm making 3d Digital Models of various projects. I was thinking about going out and doing a small side project to see if anyone else needs this visual aid as well. I know seeing things from a 3d perspective can give one better understanding of a building rather than just elevations. What do you think? If you were putting on an addition onto your home planning on designing a new home Renovating a large industrial building, would you pay to see what it looks like 3 dimensionally?

1. Several firms offer this kind of thing and it works really well for presentations. I'm not sure the average home builder or home remodeler would need such a thing or would want to pay for the cost but an Architect and/or Firm finds these kinds of tools helpful.
2. As a designer, I think in 3D... so myself personally, I don't need it and I can do it myself anyway. HOWEVER, most people, as you know, cannot visualize anything from a floor plan or elevations. So I firmly believe that people would/do pay for this service. How much I don't know because my workplace includes this as part of the drawing package. But yes, people will and do pay for properly visualizing their new space.
