Sunroom Addition
Summer 2022
​
This side project was an addition of a sunroom to the back of an existing home. Since the client wanted to get a visual of what the addition was going to look like I had two options. Measure the existing house and then model it plus the surrounding site or 3D map the entire property with a drone and not have to do any measuring. Going with the drone option saved approximately 10-15 hours between the time it would have taken to measure everything and model it. Once the model was created with the drone mapping all I had to do was take the model into 3ds Max to modify the topography and then import it into Lumion and add trees. After that I imported the SketchUp model of the addition and adjusted it to match up with the drone model. Overall it saved time and gave a much more realistic representation of what the addition would look like.
