You have now seen—and hopefully experienced firsthand by following our examples—how important planning the right view and scene setup is for the impression you want to make. You learned simple and fast techniques for SketchUp and GIMP that can change the appearance of your rendered images dramatically.

You used Thea to render photoreal images from SketchUp scenes and created animations and LayOut presentations to present your project. In this last chapter, we have completed our tour of visualization technologies with a quick introduction to interactive 3D environments.

We hope you enjoyed the topics in this book and that you will be able to use this knowledge to create mesmerizing architectural visualizations for your project.
