The beginning phases of an architectural project is wrought with many design conflicts that must be quickly flushed out in order to satisfy client expectations and project milestones. Many times before the awarding of a project, an architectural firm must present either a 2D rendering of the proposed structure, or a 3D scale model. The concept model is used to portray the building envelope and form, inhabitant circulation and zone functions. Clients may have trouble translating 2D blueprints into a clear physical image, yet with professionally constructed isometric and perspective renderings, abstract ideas suddenly become realistic representations of the architectural space.
Architectural CAD drafting services can be an extension of your architectural team, providing the manpower and 3D modeling software to turn abstract ideas into concise models providing multiple solutions to architectural design problems; and can also be the difference between losing projects to more agile A&E firms. Convert skeptical clients into believers with realistic floor finishes, wall textures and building facades that have the ability to hold pertinent meta data such as thermal and structural properties, making them a useful part of the building information model (BIM).
The concept phase is the time to work out problems with space, form and function. Finding design solutions means working together as a team from brainstorming and sketches to building the crucial concept design for client presentation. Those same concept drawings once accepted by your client, will become the basis for plans, elevations, sections – and finally the construction detail drawings and schedules. By utilizing a drafting service to create concept drawings, architects are free to focus on creative building forms, advanced material selections and winning the client’s confidence. The burden of full-time employees and costly hardware and software installations is removed, making the architectural firm more efficient.
