Design Progression Videos

The Sanctuary was designed while the project was already under construction. We used our BIM model to test and to present design ideas and options, and the sophistication of the model and of the graphic material evolved with the design. we tested different lighting configurations, stone column designs, flooring patterns, wood species, and paint colors. We produced computer-generated views frequently, sometimes weekly, for review and comment by project stake-holders. The same BIM model we developed for the design of the project was used to generate the construction details. These videos are simple transitions of some of the visuals we produced along the way.
