Strengths |
quickly communicating simple ideas emphasizing the provisional status of proposals create a unique personality Explaining concepts without being over-precise conveying the ambience and vibrancy of a place encouraging participation – tools and materials are inexpensive, and usable by all |
accurately mapping information presenting definitive solutions simulating complex views making changes easier storing and retrieving many complex images linking to external databases and information replicating and transmitting information to others photorealistic renders |
Weaknesses |
may not be accurate not easy to update drawing in series changing views or designs generally means redrawing can lack clarity limits the collaboration within the team |
can be expensive to set up difficult to share access have a finished/revolved visual feel extensive training may be required systems failures can be difficult to handle limited by available software tools |

What it shows |
indicative built form and blocking landscape structure urban grain and orientation overall character morphology hierarchy of city axes, streets, public spaces active places – playgrounds, sport spaces functional and operational structure |
intended character of places accents and dominants of space indicative building form without detail ambience instead of architecture sense of scale between buildings life between buildings by using people, animals, cars, buses etc. illustrates specific urban-architectural details |
Why it is graphically right |
proposed buildings are shown with shadows all extraneous detail removed trees and vegetation have a hierarchy drawn to a level of accuracy that is measurable – all extraneous detail removed? showing the whole urban proposal |
bright colors and contrast enhance the energy and positive ambience of the image a mix of people and uses emphasise the importance of activity to the success of the new place user-friendly and accessible view explains specific solutions |
