Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes causing a building model for a modeled building to be presented on a client computer. The building model includes a three-dimensional scene. The three-dimensional scene includes an individual rendering of at least selected building components for the modeled building. The method further includes permitting a user of the client computer to perform a virtual walkthrough of the three-dimensional scene. In addition, the method includes receiving a user change to the three-dimensional scene via a graphical user interface (GUI) component. Furthermore, the method includes dynamically changing the building model in accordance with the user change. The dynamically changing includes individually modifying an appearance of at least one building component of the at least selected building components in the three-dimensional scene.
