Why is 3D floor plans better than standard floor plans?!?
By Shobika Ravichandran

3D floor plans and 2D/ Standard floor plans are always viewed as competitors. Architects can opt to present their layout in 2D format or as a 3D floor plan.There are many benefits that we can get by working with 3D representation of the plans. To know about the advantages let us understand the pros and cons of individual 2D/ Standard and 3D floor plans first.

The Standard floor plans :

 Standard floor plans are basic representation of the architectural layouts but in 2D.
 It will often show the walls and room layout, plus fixed installations like windows, doors, and stairs as well as furniture.
 2D means the floor plan is a “flat” drawing, without perspective or depth.
 These plans gives a view from the top and may appear as lines and text.

 Standard floor plans takes less time.
 Standard floor plans are quite affordable.

cons :

• Not every client understand drawing. • There is no height representation in standard plan.
• Standard plan gives client no emotions or visualization.
• Standard drawing doesn’t have textures or downs.
• Standard plan doesn’t work for ads.

3D floor plan gives you ‘ Less House , More Home’ kind of vibe. The 3D floor plan allows creation and modification of designs in an impressive manner so that clients can visualize the space in an accurate and realistic way. The visualization technology and rendering software offer cost-competitive solutions to create efficient plans with little time and lesser efforts. Architects too can figure out flaws in the design in digital mode itself. This prevents costly reworks and also increases productivity. Cost calculation for actual building can also be efficiently done. Floor plan conversions allow modification of conventional blueprints into 3D rendered floor plans. That’s why 3D floor plans are always better than Standard floor plans.
