The IJDock Virtual Scale Model was presented at the Provada 2010. Using a Xbox360 controller, the audience was able to navigate through the project.
For more information, visit the IJDock website.
On a majestic location on the IJ lake, west of the Amsterdam Central Station, a multifunctional project will be realized. The IJDock project covers about 89000 square meters and includes an underground parking garage with about 500 places, the Palace of Justice, the National Police Agency with the State Water Police, commercial space, a hotel with 300 rooms, approximately 5800 square feet of office space, 56 apartments and a marina with 60 berths for visiting yachts.
"We believe the Virtual Scale Model to be a fantastic medium to create enthusiasm among the customers for our project," says Remco van de Wetering, Head Office Projects at ASR Property Developent. "Like no other, you can experience how the project fits into its surroundings and how buildings relate to each other. Moreover, the Virtual Scale Model has a detailed character, it looks just great. It's enlightening to have the ability to evaluate sight lines and views from every corner."
"We have organized several information evenings where the Virtual Scale Model has served well," says van de Wetering. "For both prospective users and locals the Virtual Scale Model offers an excellent picture of the project."
"We are very impressed about working with 3D capacity. They work professional and respond adequately to questions. 3D capacity is willing to help anyone at any time deploying and using the Virtual Scale Model."
