PORTFOLIO
Virtual Before Actual …
Lifting the Design Right off the Page So You Can Walk Right In
You would never buy a car without a test drive, why build a home without a virtual reality test drive? The video links below show actual client presentations from real projects. Clients will watch these video, plus have the experience of putting on Virtual Reality googles and then setting out to explore their home at their own pace. Virtual Reality brings the design of your home to life. There is absolutely no substitute for being able to walk through your home before construction beings. Isn’t the home you are creating for those lasting memories important enough to accept nothing less than the clarity and certainty you’ll gain when doing Virtual Before Actual™?

THE 2e HOME DESIGN PROCESS
The first thing you’ll notice about working with 2e Architects is our ability to uncover your wants, needs, hopes, and dreams for your new home. We listen intently and ask the questions you might not think of… and then ask some more. We examine everything from your morning coffee routine to your hobbies and interests to the way you like to entertain. We use all this information and combine it with state-of-the-art architectural design technology and our decades of experience to develop a perfectly tailored, ‘unique-to-you’ design. We are the only Maryland firm who offers an unlimited amount of 3D home design renderings and we create for every client the unique experience of a virtual reality home tour and fly-thru. This ensures even the smallest detail is understood, giving you complete confidence in your design decisions, and maximizing your budget (and happiness) before construction even begins.
