Rapid prototyping for the substantiation of architectural design interaction

We present a 3D design visualization system that is used for substantiating design annotation behavior in a 3D world through physical models. As an experiment and development work, the visualization of 3D data is conducted through the application of a commercially available 3D printer that outputs design models with graphic instruction notes left on surfaces. Content-specific images are also left on models as a kind of physical record in a construction case.
