On behalf of a valued client we again employed Nick and his team at 3D Design Bureau to deliver a series of accurate verified views as well as both daytime & night-time promotional images. With extremely tight programme constraints the team at 3D Design Bureau proactively set about their task to deliver the required images whilst working to a fluid brief and a fixed programme deadline, which they managed to accomplish without any decline on the quality of product. It has been our experience that when 3D Design Bureau commit to a programme deadline they deliver without compromise to that deadline.

We would be happy to recommend 3D Design Bureau.
