Oblique aerial view with computer generated model superimposed on the project site. For projects such as this where there will be much public involvement, the use of 3D models can be essential for illustrating what a project will look like once completed. Below, another 3D view of the proposed facility entrance.

The Lannert Group was commissioned by INDECK Energy Services of Buffalo
Grove to provide hearing exhibits and expert witness testimony for their
proposed peaker power plant in Libertyville. Key issues studied included
the location of the facility in relationship to neighboring communities,
the overall facility appearance including height, color, building mass
and setback, entrance design, and facilty screening. We made extensive
use of computer generated three-dimensional models throughout the design
process to develop numerous entry and screening alternatives as well as
to study building height and color.

An important
part of the planning process is the study of adjacent land uses and zoning
so that the facilty can be located on a site that is most compatible with
the existing surroundings. Using the data gathered in this process
then allows the designers to create an appropriate site plan, such as the
one shown at right.
