Studio 425 recently
prepared a virtual 3D model of a private home and garden in the
London Borough of Merton. The site, a single family home in an
affluent area near Wimbledon Park, slopes dramatically and includes a
number of terraces, embankments and retaining walls. The site
topography made it hard for the home owners to visualise how to make
best use of their available space.
The 3D model was prepared
on behalf of the homeowners' architect, who is currently preparing
plans for an extension and major renovation of the whole property.
The existing landscape model, below is used in discussions with their
architect and can be adapted to show different design might work.
The model was prepared
in Sketchup, using data from a topographic survey. You can download a
copy of the original file here, which opens in Sketchup and includes
a number of pre-saved views. Alternatively, click below to see an animated movie generated from the model.
If you are interested
in creating a similar model for your own property or to help
communicate your designs to your clients, Studio 425 off very
competitive rates and will be glad to discuss your project. Send us
