103 2019 Construction & Engineering Awards BUILD Leading Specialists in Architectural Visualisation Services - London Entering into its 20th year in business, Rockhunter continues to provide imaging services to a diverse body of clients including architects, property developers, property agents, interior designers and marketing consultancies across the disciplines of planning, design development and marketing of architecture and interior design. We profile this innovative company to find out more about its two-decade long legacy of excellence in the architectural visualisation services. ince its inception in 2000 Rockhunter has provided illustration services for architects, interior designers, property developers, property agents and marketing consultancies in planning, design development and marketing of architecture and interior design. Thanks to its expertise in the market, the firm is now able to offer architectural imaging services for every stage of the process including master planning; feasibility and pre-application; design development; design and access; planning and accurate visualisation; marketing and communication; as well as and 360 and immersive solutions. An example of the award-winning work the firm produces was when it was commissioned to produce a set of marketing images for the proposed redevelopment of Hornsey Town Hall. The iconic modernist building, designed by New Zealand S architect Reginald Uren and winner of a bronze medal by The Royal Institute of British Architecture, had fallen into disrepair since its role as Hornsey Council’s HQ was relinquished in 1966. Working closely with Make architects and FEC, Rockhunter created 25 images of the scheme showcasing the improved public realm and sensitively restored amenity spaces along with the new apartments. Bespoke modelling of many of the salvaged art deco furniture and fittings due for refurbishment was not only imperative, but also hugely enjoyable for the firm’s whole team. Along with the retained fixtures and fittings there were also a number of vintage items salvaged and restored for display in the entrance foyer alcoves, a fitting tribute to the building’s heritage. To support the print collateral, Rockhunter went on to produce an animated short along with a series of stings, which could run out across multiple social channels to further support the work created for both the brochure and the marketing suite. The entire project was a success and has helped the firm to showcase the importance of its services, which can be used for a wide variety of applications and projects. Ultimately, every project Rockhunter undertakes is completed to the highest possible standard, as the team believe that they have an obligation as visualisers to represent architecture as accurately as possible, not only in mass but also in articulation. Through the successful application of its team’s core skills, over the coming years the firm will continue to assist in providing local council with a clear understanding of how buildings will affect the local community, both aesthetically and interactively.
