Concept Design
This is often the beginning of the design process. It is the visualisation stage leading to agreeing the project’s scope with initial sketches. Operational parameters, project costs and schedules are estimated to give you a complete overview of the design
Schematic Design
Schematic design at this stage explores the concept in greater depth and solidifies ideas. It is here that WhiteWater’s designers begin to create CAD plans, generate 3D models and concise detail drawings.
Design Development
Good design considers in-depth operational and safety measures. That’s why, at this stage, we deliver designs in greater detail, after considering the functional and operational aspects, to illustrate how the project will be constructed, fabricated and produced. The detailed plans produced allow the client and the design team to evaluate the design solutions in terms of impact on both budget and the quality of the visitor experience.
Theming
Theming often adds that magic touch to an attraction. WhiteWater’s talented designers and sculptors together create narratives that immerse the visitor in emotionally engaging, larger than life, 3D themed environments remembered for years to come.
