by Patrica Abrams Artist

It is nearly impossible to plan and build a dream project, be it a home, an office or an industrial set up, without the services of an experienced and reputed Cape Town architect, in case you reside in this wonderful city. Since they will know everything there is to know right from the stage of conceptualizing of the project to its successful completion as envisaged, it is recommended that you hire a well noted architectural company for your requirements. They will survey the dimensions of the plot, make suitable plans for the building and landscaping and ensure that they use the space optimally. They will ensure that they work in close liaison with you or your office, so that at every stage your specific requirements and inputs are given the consideration that it deserves.

There are many reputed architectural services in Cape Town from which you should choose the one that will best suit your style of functioning and your specific requirements. Short list a couple of the preferred architectural companies and carefully look at their websites. You can read the testimonials of their earlier clients and the reviews posted on their site to get a clearer idea of their mode of working, their punctuality in finishing products etc. Look the portfolio of their past clients and also look up their projects to get the feel of their finished projects. Look at the interiors, the exteriors, the doors, window styling, the security doors, the awnings if any, the deck and the patio carefully. Meet the architects in South Africa that you have selected to handle your project and clearly explain your requirements and your expectations from your project. Their response will help you decide if they are the right one for your needs.

Architecture has come a very long way than what it was some years ago. It is no longer confined to a couple of elevation plans or building plans on paper. Now there are many phases to the kind of services an architect in South Africa can provide for you. The architect that you choose for your project should be well versed with all the advances in the field and should be able to provide you services accordingly. These should include architectural rendering, 3D modeling, architectural animation and styling, drawing, drafting and designing on the computer etc. The new renderings allow the architects to form 2 or 3 dimensional moving objects for the proposed model projects. 3D modeling helps you to understand how the interiors and the exteriors will actually look like when the construction is completed.

Animation helps you visualize better as it is like virtual tour of your future home or office. The Cape Town architects are thus able to give a complete overview of the proposed project by creating live demos and video-like animations, so that you are able to visualize the proposed building very well. It can help you make suggestions or alterations as you can envisage the proposed plans much better if they are presented in this manner. Besides these features architects today can also build environmental friendly and energy efficient buildings for you. This kind of designing is called green architecture and is a growing trend today.
