*
Q4. Would you like a scaled 3D printed model of your Spatical Coordinated Developed Design Drawings to be made of your project?
*
This is great for understanding your property in scale with your site context.
The model aids in presenting the design concept more vividly, allowing stakeholders, planners, and local authorities to better understand the scale, massing, and contextual impact of the proposed development.
The physical model facilitates clearer communication of the project's intent, making it easier for all involved parties to visualize the design in its intended environment.
This visual aid can often lead to more constructive discussions, enabling early identification of potential issues or areas that may require modification before formal submission of the planning application.
Finally, this is a great keepsake for you within your project development.
