Digital illustration & Grikat

I shall take as an example one object and will show in practice how the
 computer modeling is applied, it
s stages and possibilities.

The Weizman Center, under construction in Tel Aviv, is a major complex including medical services, shopping center, hotel type dwelling, 5-storey parking and many more facilities. The project is designed by the famous Israeli architectural firm Zarhy Architects.

The scheme shows how at definite stages of the design process by computer modeling method were created and refined variants of selected solutions, to get the optimal practicable design of the future building.

Coordination with engineering and service consultants.

In the firm all stages of the design process are automated. Therefore the basic versions of the project, architectural solutions, finishing materials, have been checked by the method of computer modeling. Apart from preparation of the project documentation, at any stage communication with the client, to discuss proposals in virtual reality, while the client could follow up the development of the design during the whole process. During the process of design with this method more than 150 variants of architectural solutions have been scrutinized, more than 3000 perspectives were prepared, hundreds of films, dozens of electronic presentations.
