Not sure which form of 3D architectural visualization is right for you?
Renderings & Animations & Scale Models, Oh My!
Looking for ways to bring your project to life? Are you entertaining the thought of using a 3D architectural visualization piece to market your big idea or to put on display? Though there are some people who approach us with a clear vision for their project, more often than not, clients come to us needing our expertise to guide them in the right creative direction. Between the exciting options of renderings, animations, or scale models, it can be hard to choose, but we can assist you through the decision process and find the best fit for you.
Besides the first step of deciding what form you want your project to take on, there are also critical decisions that need to be made about the details and design of the project. If you are interested in scale models, for example, you could explore the options of open floor, interior, massing, interactive, cutaway, or other types of models. You might even want to look into a combination of two or three different types. And that’s just the beginning! For first-time customers, this can all be very overwhelming. The good news is we have over 20 years experience in the field and can present you with the perfect 3D visualization solution that will suit your unique situation.
At the end of the day, it all boils down to your goals and how you want to achieve them through 3D architectural visualization. Want a show-stopping display that will put a big project into perspective? A scale model would do the trick. Looking to incorporate some storytelling or present a walkthrough of different elements of the project? Go with an animation. Interested in hyper-realistic snapshots from different angles of your project? Renderings are a great option. Our team at Global 3D Arts approaches each inquiry differently and works with you one-on-one to find the most fitting solution. If you are curious about renderings, animations, or scale models, but aren’t sure which option would be in your best interest, send us an email at info@global3darts.com or call us at 888-609-2900. We would love to hear about your ideas and chat about the possibilities!

Do You Know Our Other Company?
Yes, you all may have seen our animations, scale models and renderings but have we ever mentioned that we are a sister company?
Global Technology Building Systems is owned by no other than Dave Van Doren. Growing up, David watched his father build homes, manage a lumberyard, and constantly work on various projects.David hit many big milestones throughout his teenage life. By the age of 17, David was strongly encouraged to start his own concrete contracting company to help meet the demands for sidewalks, driveways, patios, and porches. David graduated as valedictorian with a degree as a geologist.
David combined his love for construction and concrete with home building and soon he was building spec homes using precast (fractured fin) decorative concrete panels. Before long David was involved in several Architectural commercial projects with banks, churches, jails, etc. This was the inspiration that David needed to develop the “Waffle-Crete” panel, since the panels were light weight, precise, strong as a solid 8” thick wall, but easily delivered to remote sites. These panels only had the equivalent thickness of about 3 ½ inches of material.
This is where the company was formally known as Waffle-Crete The challenge was to develop form work/molds that were economical and accurate. After much experimenting with other materials, such as Fiberglass.Long story short, tooling was built and the Waffle-Crete molds were formed and used for basements and other projects including a 3 story all precast apartment building (walls and floor) finished in 1976. The phone began ringing off the hook with calls from builders all over the USA and Canada.Trough the years and on many projects. A main focus has been to provide safe and affordable housing at a rapid pace to help build and rebuild communities all over the world.
Dave and Rob have worked closely over the years to continue improving the systems. Their expertise in the industry is unmatched. Together, they have received much encouragement to continue with the new company name, Global Technology Building Systems. The company has over 40 years of successful use all over the world and in some of the most severe seismic and typhoon/hurricane areas of the globe. It has proven to be fast, economical, and durable.
