A simulation device for simulating images of at least one building includes a display ( 62 ) for displaying the images; an input ( 63, 64 ) for a user to input data; a memory ( 65 ) including a first memory field containing a layout ( 40 ) of the at least one building, which layout ( 40 ) contains references to all the utility spaces forming the layout, together with their performance characteristics, a second memory field containing a model ( 50 ) of the at least one building, which model ( 50 ) contains references to both physical and financial data of all the components forming the model, a processor ( 61 ) for: computing and showing elevations of and/or sections through the building, working from the layout of the model; calculating and showing the total expected investment costs and running costs for the building.
