from concept to reality
3D rendering Software

Barnhaus Steel Builders takes responsibility for all phases of a project through the design-build method. Our experience and our design software help ensure that communication is clear between owners, designers, and contractors. 

By utilizing 3D software, our team can create a virtual model of your dream home that accurately reflects its design and layout. This model enables you to see your home from all angles, including the exterior and interior, before construction begins. This ensures that you’re happy with the final design and minimizes any potential miscommunications or mistakes.

For clients who are more visual, 3D software and VR are invaluable tools that allow them to see their home design in a way that traditional 2D drawings cannot capture. The virtual experience helps clients visualize the finished product, providing peace of mind and building trust in the construction process.

WHAT TO LOOK FORWARD TO

We create a detailed set of building plans, just like we would for actual construction. These plans include the layout, outside views, roofing design, wiring and plumbing layouts, positioning of columns, as well as the window and door schedules. A 3D model is also part of our service, enabling you to virtually explore your future home during the design phase, which helps in fine-tuning every detail. We use a collaborative design process, employing Google Meeting for live interaction, allowing us to design alongside our clients in real-time. This makes for a creative and engaging experience. Our designers are not just engineers but also project managers, skilled in crafting plans that adhere to your budget. Unlike pure design firms that are not involved in building, we have insights into construction costs, ensuring our designs don’t exceed what you’re prepared to spend.
