Verifiable Photomontage
Munrostudios has a specialist team who work across a broad spectrum of Planning projects.
From transport hubs, infrastructure, residential, heritage sites, masterplanning and city development, we enjoy a successful track record visually supporting Planning Applications in both the public and private sectors.
Our team of verifiable visualisers, photographers and surveyors, have collaboratively excelled in this area for over 18 years.
An accurate verifiable photomontage process is crucial to the planning process, providing architects with an absolute visual aid throughout the design life-cycle.
Colin Ainger, Partner, HTA Architects
‘We have returned to Munrostudios for Verifiable Photomontage images for both a London GLA DPP bid submission and our scheme for Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Tower Hamlets, which both won Planning. The images looked great and we look forward to collaborating with Munrostudios again.’
Andrew Pollard, Snr Development Surveyor, Rydon
‘Munrostudios delivered a set of part of the planning application for the award winning redevelopment of Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Hackney with Rydon Construction and HTA Architects. We were very impressed with the striking, photo-realistic verified views that they delivered. The creative and and technical input was very successful. The images helped to secure planning consent and were also used in our PR and press coverage. We will certainly work with Munrostudios again.’

Munrostudios deliver in all forms including: wire lines, block models and fully rendered photomontage.
During the Planning process, these allow Developers, Town Planners & Architects to demonstrate the impact of a proposed development from specific views.
Our senior team are available to assist during the Public Enquiry process. This includes presenting our findings during Appeal.
LVIA Methodology Document
Delivered at the end, it includes an audit trail of processes from camera matching, recommended viewing distances, expert witness provision.
It can be used to complement the site study and as an appendix to the EIA.

We set up Remote Desktop to allow clients full access to every conceivable camera position.

Once these are chosen and approved, we send out the photography & survey teams.
