Although the building initially appeared repetitive, no two floors were exactly the same. Small variations occurred throughout the building, meaning each level had to be checked and adjusted individually against the scan data. This ensured the model remained accurate from the lower floors right through to the top of the building.
Several parts of the building included intricate geometry that could not be produced accurately using standard modelling methods alone. Custom modelling techniques and workarounds were developed to reproduce these elements while maintaining a close match with the scan data.
Approximately 100 bespoke window types were modelled, including curved and non-standard forms. Each was created to reflect the existing building accurately, with the window modelling alone taking the best part of a week. The surrounding roads and kerbs were also surveyed as part of a topographical survey, allowing the building model to sit accurately within its real-world setting.
