Abstract:
The hand drawing has always been conditioned by two dimensional space, indeed the well-known draftsman's skill was to make a clear and precise drawing using a two dimensions table. Thanks to new technologies and the develop of the three-dimensional representation, new forms of design are growing up to contain a bigger number of information.

The hyper-representation is conceived as a new tool to provide knowledge, understanding and communication in the architectural configuration and urban spaces to capitalize the potential of three-dimensional modeling.

With this powerful tool we are able to view another usually neglected variable: the time.

The hyper-representation allows to visualize the building transformations and architectural changes that an artefact has sustained over time. So three-dimensional modeling of architecture becomes the basis for a great deal of dynamic output: videos, queried models and augmented reality.
