Claim 0:
1. A computer system for incorporating a real object at varying depths within a rendered three-dimensional architectural design space, comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more computer-readable media having stored thereon executable instructions that when executed by the one or more processors configure the computer system to perform at least the following:
receive captured data from a real environment, wherein the real environment comprises at least one real object within a physical architectural space;
extract the at least one real object from the captured data from the real environment;
provide a rendered three-dimensional architectural design space comprising one or more virtual architectural components, wherein each virtual architectural component is designed to coordinate with the physical architectural space;
project the captured data from the real environment on a first plane within the rendered three-dimensional architectural design space; and
project the extracted at least one real object on at least one additional plane within the rendered three-dimensional architectural design space, the at least one additional plane being positioned such that the projected at least one real object is properly occluded within the rendered three-dimensional architectural design space.
