SimplyGraphics™ t/a Simply ArchViz
Terms & Conditions
1. ARTWORK AND RENDERS
1.1 - All artwork is based purely on the 2D architectural plans supplied to us - that means that anything not featured on those drawings will not be included, as there would not be a direct reference for us to build from.
1.2 - We offer our clients the use of 'generic furniture' should they wish to include it in their model - this means a small selection of everyday items in a pre defined asset database such as toilets, showers, sofas, dining room table/chairs, doors, window frames, basic kitchens, beds and the like. We are unable to model specific furniture for your 3D model at this time (apart from kitchens, which is additionally charged), and this is not included in the price of the build. Please see relevant package for additional costs of adding generic furniture, with no hidden fees. Furniture will be scaled to that included in the original architects drawings.
1.3 - The process will be delivered in 3 stages - 1.) The untextured model (where the building will be presented as a white 'clay' model) - all changes need to be made to the model before the next stage. 2.) The textured model - once the previous iteration has been approved, we will add textures such as brickwork, roofing, wooden flooring etc. Any changes to the structure of the building after texturing has been implemented will be charged at £95 + VAT per hour. 3.) The interactive build - the textured model will be ported to our real time gaming engine, to add lighting and to make use of the 'walkthrough' element, where we can showcase different angles of the interior/exterior, and create a sequence of JPGs (price per package), or an animated video (price per package).
1.4 - Once approval has been made on the design proofs we send to you, we will digitally send over JPGs of the model from different angles (number determined by purchased package) to showcase the interior and exterior.
1.5 - We can also create interactive walkthroughs of the model, for an additional fee (price determined on application). The 3D model will need to be fully approved before we can port the model into the gaming engine. Any changes to the build made after the model has been ported to the game engine will be charged at £95+VAT per hour.
1.6 - We can create a short 2 minute video of the final model, incorporating different camera angles, set to copyright free classical music. This will be a short showcase of the interior and exterior of the property. This is purchased as an additional add-on at £2499 + VAT. You are permitted one round of revisions to the video, but any additional changes will be charged at £95 + VAT per hour.
2. LIABILITY
2.1 - We can accept no responsibility for loss or damage caused by using the 3D renders we have created for anything other than for illustrative purposes - this includes for use in construction or measurement sensitive uses. We render an artists' impression of your property and as such this should only be used as a visualisation tool.
2.2 - We are not liable for any financial loss incurred by you, including but not limited to expenses incurred by you, interest payments & loss of earnings or similar gains you would have received if the 3D model is used for anything other than illustrative purposes/an artists impression.

5.1 - No goods will be delivered on accounts which remain unpaid 14 days after payment is due. We reserve the right to charge interest on overdue accounts, at the rate of 5% above the Barclays Bank Plc base rate from time to time from the date the account became due until payment is received.

11. REFUNDS
11.1 - As our work is purely design based, refunds will only be offered minus the time spent working on the project so far. If the client pulls out of the project due to a change in plan their side, this will not be reflected on the amount of time it has taken for us to create the design and thus will still be chargeable. All 50% deposits are non refundable.
12. - CANCELLATION CHARGES
12.1 - Any costs incurred for work already carried out up to the date of written cancellation will also be charged for and deducted before any refunds are made. If the order has not yet been paid for, then an invoice will be raised for the amount concerned and sent to the responsible party.
