3D Design, Permit Plans and VR Simulation
We turn project ideas into coordinated 2D documents, understandable 3D visuals, and immersive simulations when the scope benefits from them.
We show depth, height, circulation, fixtures, finishes, and how the complete room works.
For selected projects, we create immersive simulations that can be explored at human scale.
Why we use 3D
We make the project visible before construction begins.
A 2D plan can show dimensions and technical relationships, but many clients cannot fully perceive the finished space from lines alone. Our 3D work shows where elements will sit, how rooms connect, how circulation feels, and what the design looks like as one complete environment.
That wider perspective helps our clients compare layouts, cabinet and fixture placement, furniture, door swings, openings, materials, and lighting before expensive field decisions are made. It also gives our construction, design, and engineering participants one visual reference for the same proposal.
We use each tool for its proper purpose: 3D communicates the experience; verified 2D documents and required calculations communicate the technical work.
Our coordinated service
We connect the visual idea to the documents the project needs.
2D plans and permit documents
We prepare or coordinate the technical record for the construction scope.
- Verified existing conditions and dimensions
- Existing, demolition, and proposed plans
- Permit notes, details, schedules, and specifications
- Required structural, energy, and trade coordination
- Responses to jurisdiction review comments
3D visual planning
We translate the same proposal into a form clients can see and understand.
- Room depth, circulation, and human-scale relationships
- Cabinet, appliance, fixture, and furniture placement
- Door, window, opening, and clearance concepts
- Visible materials, finishes, and lighting direction
- Design options before one is selected
When the scope or jurisdiction requires a licensed architect, engineer, energy consultant, or trade specialist, we identify and coordinate that professional role in the written scope.
How we work
One coordinated project, from capture to construction.
We organize the address, rooms, openings, photos, available plans, dimensions, and known conditions.
We prepare or coordinate the existing, demolition, proposed, and supporting technical documents required by the scope.
We use 3D views to compare layout, placement, clearances, materials, lighting, and the way the space feels.
We verify critical field conditions and bring in the qualified design, engineering, energy, or trade input the project needs.
We keep the approved plan, selections, estimate, permit responses, and construction scope aligned as the project moves forward.
Official Sacramento starting points
Check current requirements for the actual address and scope.
The City of Sacramento publishes building forms, plan review guidance, and electronic submittal instructions. Its residential addition and interior remodel take-in sheet lists information for that class of work. These sources are starting points, not a property-specific document list.
- 01City building forms
- 02City plan review guidance
- 03Electronic Plan Check
- 04Residential addition and interior remodel take-in sheet
Requirements can change. Confirm the jurisdiction first and use its current instructions before preparing or submitting documents.
How we apply it
See a kitchen island before moving it.
This planning example shows how a proposed space can be explored before construction.
- We show the proposed layout in 3D. The client can judge seating, walking paths, cabinet access, appliance clearances, and the relationship to the dining area.
- We identify the technical changes. We document whether plumbing, electrical, ventilation, structure, or flooring may be affected.
- We verify existing conditions. We confirm the dimensions and site information that control the selected option.
- We coordinate one proposal. The 3D view, drawings, selections, estimate, and field scope describe the same island location.
Our PlaceAnew workflow
We capture the room, generate the plan, and make it explorable in 3D.
We built PlaceAnew to move early remodeling conversations forward quickly. On supported devices, we turn a room capture into an organized project record, a measured floor-plan output, and an explorable 3D model. This gives our client and our project team a clearer visual starting point for defining scope and preparing an estimate.
01 · We capture
Record the existing room
We use a supported device to capture the space and keep room records and project outputs together.
02 · We generate
See measured relationships
We use the floor-plan output as a fast, organized starting record for the estimate and planning conversation.
03 · We explore
Understand the space together
We use the 3D output to make room form, openings, and layout relationships easier to understand before decisions are fixed.
We verify critical dimensions and site conditions before they control drawings, ordering, or construction. PlaceAnew does not issue permits or replace the professionals and documents a project requires.
Our advanced visualization capabilities
From a clear 3D image to an immersive digital environment.
We select the visualization level that helps the project. A still 3D concept makes layout, finishes, and placement easier to compare. For selected residential, commercial, city-scale, sales, and VR projects, we use Unreal Engine 5 and digital-twin methods to create navigable environments that clients can perceive at human scale.
Clients can experience the interactive project with our team at our office. When included in the agreed scope, we can also provide still images, video walkthroughs, and an interactive project package for review on a compatible computer.
Our still 3D work
South Sacramento office
We used one composed view to study the workstation, built-ins, lighting, circulation, and meeting zone together.

Our immersive UE5 work
High House
We created an interactive environment for exploring interior scale, materials, lighting, circulation, and design options in motion.

Our plan-to-build coordination
We carry the approved idea into the field.
Our documented Roseville whole-home remodel shows how we connect the proposed plan, field coordination, and finished space. This project evidence demonstrates our construction work. Permit approval depends on the required drawings, calculations, specifications, professional input, and jurisdiction review. The 3D model helps the team understand and coordinate the design.
01 · We document
Existing and proposed scope
We use the drawing record to align the existing space with the proposed interior work.
02 · We coordinate
Work behind the finish
We address field conditions and trade coordination after the layout is selected and the walls are opened.
03 · We build
Integrated final result
We carried cabinetry, island placement, lighting, circulation, and finish decisions into the completed kitchen and living area.

Questions about our service
How we use 2D, 3D, permits, VR, and digital twins.
What 3D design capabilities does US Construction provide?
We use measured planning information, 3D visualization, PlaceAnew room capture, and selected Unreal Engine 5, VR, and digital-twin workflows to make a proposed space easier to understand before construction.
Can US Construction prepare or coordinate permit plans?
Yes. We prepare or coordinate the 2D plans, permit documents, and required design or engineering input identified for the actual construction scope and jurisdiction. Any outside professional role is stated in the written scope.
Why use 3D when a 2D plan already exists?
A 2D plan communicates dimensions and technical relationships. Our 3D views help clients perceive height, depth, circulation, furniture, fixtures, materials, lighting, and how the complete room will feel.
When do you use Unreal Engine, VR, or digital twins?
We use these advanced workflows selectively when a project benefits from human-scale walkthroughs, interactive option review, city-scale context, sales presentation, or a persistent digital representation of the proposed environment.
How does PlaceAnew support early planning?
PlaceAnew helps us organize a supported-device room capture into a project record, a floor-plan output, and an explorable 3D model so the first scope and estimate conversations begin with clearer visual information.
Are your 3D visuals construction or permit drawings?
No. Our 3D visuals communicate design intent. Verified 2D documents, calculations, specifications, and qualified professional approvals remain separate deliverables when the project requires them.
What should I send your team to begin?
Send the property address, photos, available plans, desired changes, known constraints, and the decisions you want help visualizing. We will identify the practical next step and the services the project requires.
