Instant visualization provides important design feedback from an early stage...
Communicating your design well to the client from early in the design
development phase can save you costly changes later on. Interactive 3D
navigation makes it easy and intuitive to set up views, and ArchiCAD's
rendering tools are simple to use. No expert knowledge or additional
software is required to produce photo-realistic images. You can create
accurate sun studies and cast shadows for any date, time and position on
earth, providing you a sound basis for evaluation and design decisions.
Your clients will truly understand your vision when you take them for a
walk through a photo-rendering quality animation of your design. Or let
them lead the tour using Virtual Reality (VR) interactive navigation. VR
scene files are small you can send them by email or use them to enhance
your project portfolio on your web site. Photo-realistic renderings and
free-hand-style sketch renderings further provide you more choice in how
you communicate your design to your clients. Gain valuable design
feedback using "AlignView" which lets you insert a rendering of your
model into an image of the project. For large-scale illustrations, take
advantage of vectorial shading, which lets you produce images that are
scalable without any loss of quality.
ArchiCAD also lets you take advantage of professional rendering software - export the 3D model easily to any rendering software.
