This allowed us to easily monitor exactly how our interventions would impact on the existing fabric by jumping back and forth from the existing to proposed views.‘Data Drops’ at RIBA project stages:2/C: 3D VR presentations to the community, funding organisations and politicians.3/D: All planning application drawings. NIEA Listed buildings attended our 3D walkthrough presentation of the design proposal.  Images for publicity and for funding applications.4/FG: Working Drawings, Schedules.5/K: 3D Virtual Reality model to assist contractors in getting a feel for the project.Next Project
