The common threads tying together RKD’s work across all these project areas are the design process it undertakes and the software it uses to support it. Being able to rapidly restore project data from a cloud back-up means RKD have been able to protect their projects and data from information-loss and the associated risk of this.

CAD drawings never become universally accepted contractual documents and the risk/liability issues of that ‘language’ are significantly less difficult than what making models ‘real’ would be.
