What Do I need To Send?
We can accept any drawings in (JPEG, PDF or DWG formats) that are proportionally scaled, have at least one real-world measurement and are not distorted in anyway. If you have created your own plans on graph paper - that is fine, digital photos of the plans are fine for the quoting, but cannot be used for the actual modeling. If you only have large format paper plans you may need to go to FUJI-XEROX to get them scanned into an electronic file.
Express Service and Bulk Back-Haul rates
Once agreement is reached to model. Our usual turn-around time is within 5-10 work-days. Larger projects may take longer. Talk to us about our express services for a 48 hour turn-around or our bulk back-haul rates for converting your current range into a graphical portfolio.
Can you do Subdivisions and Multi-Unit Developments?
Yes, we have experience modeling aged care, mining towns, subdivisions and industrial parks. We also require a landscaping plan to provide an accurate quote. Often we can find savings in multi-building developments.
What Do I Need For Shadow Diagrams?
We require a siteplan, elevations and floorplans. RLs (Reduced Levels) of key points on your proposed development are required to create an accurate simulation. If overshadowing of neighbouring properties is an issues we will also require RLs of surrounding buildings.
Can you do Interiors?
I required, we can model internal layouts which indicates room usage and flooring choices. If needed We can model every single dovetail joint in every drawer, every power-point, every nail if needed. Our normal process for lighting is more illustrative than photo-realistic.
Can I incoroporate existing Views and Context-Of-Environs?
ICS can provide a photographic service to include the actual views from windows and also visualise privacy lines. Key points and surrounding buildings can also be modelled. Please discuss your needs.
What About Architectural and Bespoke Designs?
Not all developments are the same, and whilst our rates are based on contemporary standard designs, Some designs are significantly more complex than others either through materials, engineering, site or simply your required level of detail. We are happy to discuss your specific design needs and supply a consultant on-site to work with your design team to assist in the realisation of the finished design.
I Have a Development with 3 different Facades
ICS can provide various material, design and landscaping changes to the facade of the same basic design for a small additional fee
What if I Need Changes?
Unlike other visualisation services, ICS can perform minor changes and fixes, such as material changes, minor landscaping and other cosmetic changes in the initial quote.
I have Some Unique Custom Materials I want to Use.
ICS will attempt to match the desired materials to its large library of materials and objects, however if you wish for specific furniture or materials please discuss your needs with us.
What Makes ICS visualisation Different?
We balance visual fidelity with the ability to rapidly model and make changes to materials and design in real-time. ViewBuild's semi photorealistic visual quality is usually perfect for many projects. ICS can also provide the slower traditional type of photo-realistic service.
