The Model of Bath, UK

The aim of this project was to provide city developers and architects with a computer model of Bath as a visualisation tool for testing the impact of new designs. A database of over 150 urban blocks was created and made available for purchase to those involved in designing new buildings in the city.

The model was developed by the Centre for Advanced Studies in Architecture (CASA) at Bath. The project was funded by J. Sainsbury plc. and supported by Bath City Council.

[More information will be provided in due course.]

Project dates: 1991

Resource status: Blocks of the model can be purchased from CASA.

Contributors: Alan Day, Vaughan Hart and Robert Tavernor, Centre for Advanced Studies in Architecture (CASA), Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering, University of Bath, UK.
