I will create a whole visualization package that contains Images, 3D Video and a user interactive walkthrough. I will use these technical drawings to create the buildings in 3D.

PRP Artefact 2

For the second artefact, I wanted to be more direct and find out the opinion of a private client. I have found a family that are building a house; they have supplied me with the 2D AutoCAD designs. Using those designs, the product I created is a full 3D exterior view of their house.

I created many visualization images showing the exterior of the house from different angles and then created a questionnaire to get my required information from the family of four. This is what I found out;
• I supplied the family with both types of images, realistic and artistic and 3 out of the 4 preferred the realistic images. This is further proof as mentioned in the previous artefact.
• As a client, all members of the family require more visualization media than just images. In the past only images were supplied with the technical drawings, now we have 3D videos and user interactive.
• All members of the family expect the images to be supplied with the technical drawings by the architect and 3 wouldn’t mind paying if charged. Majority of the architecture firms now provide visualization images, but many charge extra depending on the size and types of media.
• When asked to spot potential changes in the design, both parents said they were not able to. This proves that either a 3D video or user interactive is important.
• Surprisingly, 2 members of the family would not pay for a 3D video but all would pay for a user interactive.

For the next artefact, I will create a 3D video to show the interior of the house and then create a questionnaire to find out specific information from the private family client.












PRP Artefact 1

For the Personal Research Project, my topic is ‘What is the key advantage of real-time rendering for conceptualization’. I am specializing in Architectural Visualization, and this project will prove my theory that for majority of visualization, user interactive walkthroughs is the new media that is widely appreciated and beneficial.

For the first artefact, I wanted to get a general sense of what the public thinks of architectural visualization. So I created a product and got 100 opinions on it from the general public. The product I created was the Emirates Flight Control Tower at Terminal 3 in Dubai International Airport, United Arab Emirates.

I created a series of visualization images and a questionnaire along with it. From the questionnaire, I found out the following;
• 80% of the general public want the images to be more realistic than artistic. There are many companies that provide artistic images to give them an edge or to be different.
• Nearly 60% of the public would not be interested or not bothered if architectural images are advertised. In Dubai, many visualization images of buildings and skyscrapers are advertised, and many people just ignore them.
• 45% of people said images are not enough and that along with the technical drawings; they would want a user interactive walkthrough as well.

For the next artefact, I will create the exterior of a house supplied by a private client and create a questionnaire to ask them vital information about what they think of architectural visualization.
