“We may alter decisions right before a meeting when we’re actually sitting in the client’s office. Sometimes we’ll be running animations when I’m on my way to the meeting and it’ll be ready when I get there,” Scott Erdy from Erdy McHenry Architecture describes how his firm uses Lumion for “process-oriented rendering.”
