Software Tools
All our drafting and conversion work is done using AutoCAD software. All our photorealistic views and 3D rendering is done using 3D studio Max.
Complex engineering concepts come alive in irresistible color, light and movement with Alcove's architectural animations created with advanced 3D software technology like AutoCAD, ArchiCAD, Maya, Maxon and 3DMax.
These interactive multi-media presentations allow viewers to literally see the building taking shape, the exteriors down to intricate details such as building material, the environment, the landscaping, trees, roads and neighborhood; the interiors including lights and furniture. The building can be viewed from all perspectives, giving it a photo-realistic dimension.
Aspects of 3D Walkthroughs and animations and Virtual Room Design include :
Building Interiors: 3D Rendering can portray color hues, light intensity, light reflection and the play of shadows, which reflect interior or exterior lighting.
Exterior lighting takes natural lighting into account with variables such as window direction, seasons, diurnal variations and global latitude playing a role.
Interior lighting includes light from each fixture, the self-illumination of objects in the room and reflection of light within the room.
Building Exteriors: 3D Walkthroughs usually start with depiction of the external façade of the building where the structure, architecture and building materials can be shown.
External Environment: 3D Architectural animation especially in the case of 3D Flythroughs will include exterior features such as landscaping, trees, hedges, fences, and vehicles, roads and the neighborhood in general.
