Residential | Commerical | Industrial
This coastal South Shore property in Hingham, Massachusetts blends classic New England architecture with a thoughtfully designed landscape that includes a main residence, carriage house, tennis court, and supporting outbuildings.
Pointknown was brought in to create a complete set of existing-conditions documentation and 3D digital models to support ongoing design and planning efforts. Let’s just say — it’s a stunning property… and next time we’re taking the ferry.
Project Overview
Our team performed a full reality capture and modeling scope across the entire property, delivering accurate, architect-ready digital assets while preserving the character and layout of the existing structures and grounds.
Scope of Work Included:
Main House – Interior & Exterior Capture
Carriage House Documentation
Full Site & Grounds Modeling
Tennis Court & Accessory Shed
Landscape Context & Circulation Areas
To ensure both design precision and spatial understanding, we combined terrestrial capture, drone data, and immersive media to create a complete digital record of the property as it exists today.
Technology & Capture Methods
We utilized a combination of advanced field capture tools to document the structures and site with a high level of detail and spatial accuracy:
Laser Scanning & Reality Capture for precise building geometry
Drone Aerial Imaging to capture roof conditions, site layout, and landscape relationships
360° Video Walkthroughs to provide contextual reference for designers and stakeholders
This layered approach ensures the design team can understand not only dimensions — but also how spaces feel, connect, and flow.
3D Modeling & Visualization
All captured data was translated into a detailed Revit model built to align with the client’s architectural template standards, allowing for seamless integration into their ongoing design workflow.
Deliverables included:
Revit models of the Main House and Carriage House
Modeled site features and recreational structures
Coordinated building and landscape context
To further enhance spatial understanding, we produced existing-condition renderings in Twinmotion, allowing stakeholders to visually explore the property in a realistic 3D environment before design changes begin.
Why It Matters
Projects like this highlight the importance of accurate existing-condition documentation when working with large properties, multiple structures, and landscape features. By delivering a coordinated digital foundation, we help design teams move forward with confidence — minimizing guesswork, return site visits, and surprises in the field.
And while the drive to Hingham can test your patience, capturing places like this is always worth the trip.
