3Dar.com - Architectural Rendering

http://www.3dar.com/



Based in Argentina, 3Dar.com offers what it describes as "high quality hyperrealistic renders at very low costs". The core of the site is a portfolio section, featuring examples of the company's work, including exteriors, interiors, stands, industrial designs, walkthroughs and flybys; pricing information is also given. Available in English, Spanish and German versions, the site is very slick indeed; however, its reliance on cutting edge technology - "800x600 minimum resolution - only supported Internet Explorer 6 - Flash MX plug-in required" - limits its accessibility. [GAS, 21 Aug 2006].

Franklin Rees Associates

http://www.franklinrees.com/




FranklinRees is an architectural, interior and landscape design practice based in the heart of Birmingham, specialising in "creating multimedia marketing solutions [for] clients across a wide range of sectors". A visually appealing splash page links to four subsites, including architecture, media design, recruitment and a client area. The former covers the firm's architectural, landscape and graphic design work, with extensive illustrated coverage of its GIS, visualisation and other services, and a well-annotated and illustrated portfolio section showcasing previous projects. Meanwhile, the recruitment section includes details of available vacancies and gives candidates the opportunity to apply online. When Sapling last visited the site we commented that accessibility would be improved if the text was displayed normally rather than being embedded as images, so it's really positive to see that this has now been changed. Awarded a Sapling Commendation. [GAS, 3 Dec 2006].
