Architecture forms conscience
We believe that cities with their architecture are living and constantly changing organisms.
We like watching new houses and districts being built and the world around us changing. While the architecture is changing, the conscience of people is changing too. We understand that architecture bears a serious social responsibility before the society: it influences the general comfort of living and daily takes part in the formation of taste and habits of people.
By visualization, we wish to show people the important role of architecture in our life and to render the feelings and emotions created by the future object, which is being built or designed; and to do our best to draw attention to architecture and make people discuss it; as well as to make people avoid extremities in its perception when the buildings around us are either completely neglected or taken for granted or just a scene behind the window or considered from the standpoint of economical effectivity without paying due regard to the beauty, harmony or actuality of the building.
Architectural visualization as a means of a dialogue
Visualization is the best means to start a dialogue between professionals in the architecture sphere (architects, builders, developers) and people who are far from the theme of architecture. In this case, the dialogue is expressed in advertising materials, articles, presentations and support documentation. At each level of interaction, in order to form the first impression, pictures are used.
And we like to create pictures of architectural objects and, by that, to help to start an interesting dialogue, which, very often, represents one of the first steps to the realization of the project.
