A construction entrepreneur has launched a new business designed to help property developers, estate agents and home buyers nationwide visualise new projects in full 3D imagery – before a single brick has been laid.

Lincolnshire-based Gary Rance, has brought forward Architectural Imaging Solutions (AIS), a company that specialises in images and animations to demonstrate in beautiful high definition the finished version of architectural and construction projects based on its basic plans alone.

While the architectural visualisation industry is booming in America and has experienced huge growth in º£½ÇÊÓƵ, specialists are difficult to come by, especially outside of major cities.

With an education in design, property, construction and architecture has long been a side-passion, with three home builds largely designed and project managed himself under the Louth man's belt. Yet, even with his experience and depth of understanding of the sector, he often found himself nervous about what a final build would look like.

“How big will the rooms be? How well will the spaces flow? What materials and colours should be used to get the desired final effect? Limitless questions with only my imagination to satisfy them – and even a relatively well-trained mind’s eye couldn’t satisfy the queries of others who struggled to see my vision,” he explained.

It was this hurdle that planted the seed in Rance’s mind that it couldn’t only be him struggling to visualise the final fruits of a construction project.

 

“I wondered how many people were being put off completely from building their dream home for fear their significant investment would not yield the desired result,” he said.
