Virtual architecture is created through the use of specialized software and tools, known as computer-aided design (CAD) software, used by architects and designers to create 3D models of buildings and other architectural structures. It involves the use of 3D modeling software that allows the design and construction of virtual representations of architectural projects, which can be rendered and viewed from various perspectives. The models can be created using various data sets such as floor plans, blueprints, and measurements and can be modified to fit different design aspects. Once the model is created, it can be utilized for other purposes such as 3D printing, virtual reality, and animations. Overall, virtual architecture provides architects and designers with a powerful tool to visualize and communicate their ideas and designs, saving valuable time and resources while improving the quality of the final project.
