What does GD3D / Garsdale Design do?
We are a multi-disciplinary consultancy working on Architectural, City Planning, Heritage, Geospatial and Visualisation projects, both here in the UK and worldwide with particular focus on the USA and Middle East.
How and why are these areas linked?
Geography connects everything and everyone on this planet, but some things are closer linked than others in this case Geography, GIS (Mapping), Urban Planning, Architecture, and Gaming help shape the world we live in and let us explore scenarios and futures before they are created.
Our consultancy has a real-world impact on many people from the hyper-local projects to large cities home to hundreds of thousands of people. Maps help us understand not just our context but also our present and futures
