Project summary

Step into history with the Costa-Foru House, a late 19th-century architectural masterpiece crafted in the eclectic French style of the Hôtel particulier. More than just a residence, this landmark was once the home of Constantin Costa-Foru, a distinguished journalist, lawyer, and activist, and a hub for justice and human rights advocacy. To ensure its legacy endures, Graphein conducted a comprehensive architectural survey, documenting every ornate detail and translating its historical elegance into precise digital records.

Our work

High-Precision 3D Scanning & Architectural Documentation
Using cutting-edge terrestrial laser scanning and photogrammetry, we meticulously captured the residence’s intricate architectural details, from the wrought iron staircase bearing Maria Costa-Foru’s initials to the monumental windows that flood its interiors with light.

Preserving Heritage with Modern Technology
Through advanced surveying techniques, we created highly accurate plans, elevations, and 3D models that safeguard the structure’s original craftsmanship while providing a foundation for future restoration and conservation efforts.

Challenges

  • Digitally documenting intricate historic details while preserving their authenticity
  • Creating a seamless blend of historical accuracy and modern survey techniques
  • Ensuring the property’s legacy is preserved for future generations

Results

The Costa-Foru House stands as a testament to the importance of heritage conservation. By transforming this architectural gem into a detailed digital archive, we contribute to its long-term preservation, allowing its story to endure for generations to come.

At Graphein, we don’t just document history – we ensure its legacy remains intact through precision, innovation, and a deep respect for the past.
