We’re starting one of our most important projects, and probably our longest:
3D scanning of the Ion Mincu Institute of Architecture Palace.
And we won’t be doing it alone, but together with students who will learn what 3D scanning means.
As we’ve always said, we want to help the entire Romanian construction market to have 3D topographic surveys and mapping available according to the highest standards and using the latest technologies.
Throughout Graphein’s existence we have been able to integrate 3D scanning in a way that helps architects to dream, create and focus on the experiences of future building occupants.
I want to congratulate the management of the University of Architecture and Urbanism “Ion Mincu” Bucharest for asking us to help. We signed a partnership and the whole Graphein team is keen to contribute. We have offered pro bono help on other occasions and we encourage anyone who has a goal to save Romania’s heritage to ask us to help.
The aim is for future architects to learn how to work with the new 3D building scanning technology to produce 2D reliefs and 3D models quickly, accurately and with the highest level of detail.
The end of this project could be on the finalisation of the 2D reliefs and 3D modelling, but we promise we won’t stop there.
The main activities in the partnership are as follows:
- Realisation of 3D scans, 2D reliefs and 3D models of the building of the University of Architecture and Urbanism “Ion Mincu” Bucharest by providing the equipment and technical expertise of Graphein Topo SRL
- Organising courses and workshops at the University of Architecture and Urbanism “Ion Mincu” Bucharest to promote the benefits of 3D scanning.
- Providing professional viewpoints in the realisation of 2D and 3D drawing standards updated with current practices.
- To promote the activities and best practices resulting from the collaboration through videos, stands organised inside and outside the University, domain specific events, etc.
- Popularisation of 3D scanning for all construction domains: industrial, residential, office and heritage buildings, infrastructure.
- Possibility to organise internships for students in the 3D scanning office of GRAPHEIN TOPO SRL.
We invite all architecture students who want to learn about 3D scanning to join us in all stages of project development.

Architecture students will be able to learn:
- 3D scan of building exterior – 75% completed.
- 3D scanning for interior spaces.
- Point cloud processing.
- Importing point clouds into design programmes (Autocad, Revit, Arhicad, etc.).
- Relay 2D facades in Autocad format.
- Drawing up interior surveys.
- Realisation of 2D building sections.
- Realisation of a 3D model in Revit format for the preparation of BIM work.
We will work with the most advanced Leica 3D scanners. Students will have support from a great team. They will realise 3D models ready to BIM.
So far, 3D scanning of the exterior facades has been realised. We had the opportunity to visualise the point cloud in VR. The unforgettable experience took place during the VR Hackathon & Conference

We drew 2D the main facade, the old entrance area.
The 3D model is just the beginning.
We continue with the students.
From the discussions with the management of the University of Architecture and Urbanism “Ion Mincu” Bucharest, it will be possible to equalise the practice of relief for the students active in the project.
All interested students are kindly requested to send an email to office@graphein.ro expressing your intention. We will come back shortly with the details!
