This concept project reimagines Manchester Central Library with a contemporary rooftop intervention, designed to enhance public space while respecting the building’s historic architecture within St. Peter’s Square. Start to finish in 2 days, the project uses a hybrid architectural visualisation workflow combining 3D modelling, Photoshop compositing, and AI-driven animation. The aim was to produce highly realistic CGI visuals and animations that present the concept as a believable, real-world scheme within Manchester’s city centre context. This approach demonstrates how fast, high-quality architectural visualisation (ArchViz) can support architects and property developers at early design and planning stages—helping to communicate proposals clearly for planning applications, stakeholder engagement, and marketing. Ideal for developers, architects, and planning consultants looking to showcase new schemes with speed, realism, and impact.
