One of PAC Design’s specialities is in producing hand drawn perspective views (alongside site layouts, plans and other images), to enable clients and planners to understand the proposals from the concept stage and its development through the  planning process. This can be particularly useful at planning committees where attractive hand drawn images are welcomed

Often, a hand drawn image  serves as a warmer, more attractive alternative to computer generated images. They can be prepared quickly and at short notice, and without the high costs of CGIs. Coloured visualisations also serve in the marketing of the units after consent has been obtained
