Visualization is integral to the design process and having the effective tools to communicate and that process to the client in a clear and efficient manner can be challenging.
For WGI's Architecture Team, this process recently got an upgrade with the latest addition of a new 3D printer -- an innovative tool allowing our architects to rapidly and effectively communicate their designs in a tactile form.
This technology can be utilized to model an entire project or small-scale design details, making it easier to convey design intent to the client. Building Information Modeling (BIM) combined with immersive and 3D printing technology provides a platform for designs to be visualized in a multitude of ways.
Our architects now have the ability to rapidly create tangible objects that the client can physically see and touch throughout the design process, offering a much more "hands-on" experience.

"We really enjoy presenting our designs through 3D models, photorealistic renderings and immersive virtual experiences for clients to fully understand their investment before a shovel touches the earth" - Eric Luttmann, Director, Architecture
