Detailed Design
We focus on the nature of detailed design in comparison to the previous design stage of concept design. We explain how detailed design can be used to visualise plant yields and characteristics using a highlighting feature.
What is Detailed Design
In detailed design, we can turn larger areas into items we can build or plant. It usually contains objects in their real-life dimensions. You can see an example on the image below.
EXAMPLE
For example, a veggie garden area from your concept design will evolve into garden beds of specific sizes you can shop for or build.
Highlight Planting
If you set up the times of your trees bearing blossoms, fruit, or leaves, you can visualise the information for each month.
You can toggle the highlighting in the overlay menu.
Why would you want to fill and visualise the fruiting, flowering and bearing leaves? Our motivation was to plan for processing yield, to check we grow enough bee forage all year round, and to plan for shelter from the hot summer sun.
