The World's First Real-Time Design Studio for Architectural Industry

Oct. 27, 2010 - PRLog -- Strasbourg, France - October 26, 2010 - Designed by architects for architects, veteran visualization studio KA-RA has announced the release of Twinmotion®2, an award winning real-time studio that lets architects and designers create, edit and share interactive 3D models.

Following the experience acquired over the years, Twinmotion was developed to integrate the design and visualization process. Using revolutionary real-time technology, substantial time savings can be gained throughout the design process and savings of between 300% and 1500% can be realized in the creation of full-motion video. Thanks to Twinmotion®2, notable firms like Zaha Hadid, Ateliers Jean Nouvel and Aéroports de Paris have improved their design processes with a more natural, integrated and creative use of visualization.

"TwinMotion has saved us a great deal of time.  We now have an alternative to building physical models of our projects. It has opened our minds to explore forms, design implications and to experiment." said Jean-Michel Fourcade, Chief Architect at Aéroports de Paris.

Twinmotion®2 is designed to integrate into any design workflow. Users are able to seamlessly import models from the most popular applications such as Autodesk 3ds Max®, AutoCAD®, Revit®,Softimg® and SketchUp™. An exhaustive 3D library is included with over 460 objects specially designed for real-time modeling. An intuitive interface allows for real-time lighting and modeling tools and many other advanced effects including, real-time seasons, atmospheric effects, sound, interaction triggers, real-time physics and more.

Product Availability

Twinmotion®2 retails for $2990 for a single user license. For more information and extensive examples of the software in action, please visit the Twinmotion®2 website at: www.twinmotion.com
