We do however have a model of the topography of what is around the site and this will be used to put our development into the existing background when we build the model. The heights of buildings as shown at the exhibition are above the car park where they are at the river side but where they are on the street side the heights relate to height above the existing ground level and this was annotated on the drawing displayed. The model will help to make this easier to understand.   | | You must login if you wish to contribute to this forum. Merlin Milner   Re:Phoenix Action - 2006/04/21 21:49 On the subject of models, I would agree that it would help people understand a development but is not always the best tool. In a past life I used be a professional architectural modelmaker and often found that they gave one a helicopter view of a scheme. Fine if you own one or are interested in the view from the downs or as an architect want to see how pretty the roof is. Lewes is full of different levels and to access the impact from street level is what many poeple want to know. Nowadays computer modeling, flyby animation and miniture cameras in the physical model are all ways of getting a better idea of any proposed scheme. So a model, I feel, is one way of conveying the plans but not always the best. A mixture of presentation methods would be best   | | You must login if you wish to contribute to this forum.

This will be available as well as a physical model and will be on display at at the time of the planning application.   | | You must login if you wish to contribute to this forum.
