The program also applies to designing of institutions and public catering: dining rooms, cafe, kitchens and to it similar premises.

The system allows developing the project, show it to customer and execute project updating. In the course of work the designer and the client see the project in the quality close to photographic. On the future trading floor it is possible to "walk" literally, approximately just as it becomes in computer games. It is possible to see a hall from a place of the cashier, the manager or security and to move subjects covering the view.

Besides, bCAD can create the image of photographic quality, with real illumination, shades, mirror reflexions and a play of light in glass surfaces.
