During the initial meeting, I will go through the plans and discussed the project in detail with the client, architect, and project manager. The aim of this meeting is to a certain as much information as possible about the project including furniture layouts and their specific requirements. More information is provided at this stage.

PHOTOSHOP RENDER

From perspectives, 3D rendered images and elevation are required in order to illuminate a Photoshop illustration of the effect.

3D SIMULATION

All 3D Simulations are using accurate luminaire data gotten from Light manufacturers and use those in such 3Ds Max & Revit Software. In order to do simulation needs, 3d models have been required alternatively we could model this from Scratch.

LUX LEVEL CALCULATION

Dialux Evo is the best software in the market in order to do lighting analysis. 3d files can be imported to do lighting analysis from 3d software or can import CAD drawings and build up 3d models based on the CAD Drawing details.
