3D Theater Design

The first step in the design process is for us to acquire digital photographs depicting every angle of the proposed project area. We can take these pictures if the client is within reasonable distance. Digital photos can easily be e-mailed by those who are not. It is better to have too many pictures than not enough.

Photos may or may not provide enough information to determine cost of design. Some cases may require a sketch with basic dimensions. Once we have received all of the necessary information we will contact the customer with a design proposal.

Before any design work can actually begin we will need an accurate drawing of proposed area. A blueprint is preferred however a correctly drawn sketch with all important dimensions can work. This might require several communications between us and person providing sketch.

The floor plan drawing shown above is an example of the first phase of our design process. This 2 dimensional desktop is where we do all our work assigning colors, textures and the very important 3rd dimension to all aspects of the plan. The accuracy of all following design work is directly affected by the accuracy of this early stage model.

This is a 3D rendering of empty basement floor plan shown above. You will notice that the homeowner had the original builder construct and finish a full bathroom. Ductwork is also shown since it must be incorporated into ceiling design.

This is the completed floor plan view from which all final renderings have been generated.

Entertaining during sporting events was the main focus of this Premium Plus - defined theater area design. As you can see, this final plan allows for close up viewing for those wanting to really get into the game. At the same time, others who may want to socialize while still being a part of the action can watch from the bar or pool table. A quieter, out of the way seating area is shown behind full bath.

This is the finished 3D theater area view that corresponds with photo 1 at top of this page. Note location of support column in foreground.

Here is the final view from the bar that corresponds with the second unfinished photo at the top of this page. The screen distance is not as far as it appears in this wide angle view.

We are expecting to start construction on this project in the Spring of 2007. Total design fee for this project including theater area seating layout, platform design and overall lighting was $1,900.
