3D from drawings and photos

Three places and things rebuilt in 3D from paper plans and photos

Interactive 3D models built in three.js: a Sydney terrace renovation, a hillside house in Akaroa and my own car. Each one turns paperwork that is hard to read into something you can turn around and compare.

Client: Personal
Year: 2026
Built with: three.js
Service: 3D Modelling

3 Models: a terrace, a house and a car
7 Layouts compared in the terrace model
2 Export formats, OBJ and GLB

Paddington Terrace: Seven layouts in one house

A terrace renovation in Paddington, Sydney. I rebuilt the architect's drawings (existing, demolition, proposed, an ensuite option and three schematic options) as one model, true to the levels in the drawings, with the street, the lane and the neighbours for context. Each layout switches in place, floor by floor, with demolition marked in red.

Akaroa House: A 2008 house, checked against its title

A hillside house in Akaroa that only existed as 1:100 drawings from 2008, some photographed rather than scanned. The model is scaled from them and cross-checked against the record of title: a 633 m² site, 555 m² once the right of way is taken out, and 137 m² of floor area, in five layers from site to roof.

Volvo V40: A car with its history attached

My 2017 Volvo V40 T5 Cross Country, modelled from photos, at the centre of a dashboard that pulls the service invoices, status report and manual into one place: what's due, what's overdue and what's been done, with a printable service history and specification sheet.

Christchurch, New Zealand

Oscar Shand

Design and systems for small businesses: the brand, the website and the tools that run behind them.

Open to new projects and roles, in New Zealand and Australia

What I do

Selected projects, 2023 to 2026.

Not only a design hire.

Alongside the design work I bring a year of legal support at Ashurst in Melbourne, covering billing, expenses and document production, and product ownership of the application portal at the New Zealand Film Commission.

I'm looking for full-time roles in design and digital, legal and executive support, or business operations and analysis, in New Zealand or Australia.

Work

Selected work.

Client and studio projects from the last three years.

Each project covers the problem, what I set out to do and what happened. Any numbers are real ones.

Ideas

Ideas and side projects.

Work outside client briefs: a disk visualiser, a rail plan for Canterbury, a video chat built around consent, and 3D models made from drawings and photos.

Archive, 2021 to 2023.
