Cuil Bay case study • John Gilbert Architects – Matt Bridgestock • Started with 3D Print models but moved to BIMx • Regularly emailed the updated models, and asked for feedback • “Reassures the client that everyone has the right interpretation of how the building will work.” • Enabled the architect to personalise the building by adding in paintings from a friend. Included Kat’s door and window choices • The Client - Kat Jones • Started on iPhone and moved to laptop • Shared 3D model with kids, parents, brothers & sisters • “I could visualise being able to live in the house and how I would use the space. I could see how the doors, windows and stairs related to the room and adjacent rooms.” • Enabled changes to be made after visualising spaces • Widened corridors and access’s etc.
KA Design Works - Kenneth Adler • “Because the changes can be uploaded via the BIMx Docs application directly to the iPad, the process of getting those changes to the work site has been streamlined and costs associated with printing those changes have been reduced.”
Custom Timber Log Homes - Chris Sparks • “The overlays on the sections and the detail we are able to show make it possible for anyone to understand the project regardless of their knowledge of modelling or drafting.”
