Gathering content from clients for any project, such as an app, a website or a presentation is a guarantee for headaches. In my own projects I’ve come across this headache many times. It’s frustrating to know that I seem to fail to make it any easier for me or the client when it comes to […]
Filebrowser bliss
I work on a computer all day. My core-business is 3d. So a lot of my time is spent on programs like 3dsMax or photoshop. But since I’m also a projectmanager I have to look at a lot of other people’s files, and of course my own. As a part of my everyday work I’ve […]

Online 3d model of Rotterdam
Last month I’ve delivered a 3d online model of a large development area in Rotterdam (link) at DPI. We’ve developed the first architectural 3d online model in flash. This means it’s very accessible. There’s no need to install extra plugins, since almost everybody already has flash. Of course such a model needs to be very […]

We’ve bundled these ideas in an augmented reality presentation which contains some of our own projects, but also many great other examples. We’ve also added […]
