This article highlights three key trends the 3DDB team predicts will lead the way in 2025. While design remains at the heart of the AEC sector, this year’s advancements are heavily influenced by data-driven insights and a steadfast commitment to sustainability.

Visual impact assessments can play an important role in the planning application process. Whether you have been instructed to provide an LVIA (Landscape Visual Impact Assessment) or TVIA (Townscape Visual Impact Assessment) by a planning consultant or a local council, submitting a complete and well-crafted report can have an impact on the outcome of your submission.

Undeniably, sustainability is an important part of planning, building, and delivering properties. As Europe makes significant commitments towards achieving Net Zero Emissions, the AEC industry finds itself with increased responsibility.
