Architectural rendering, or architectural illustration, is the art of creating two-dimensional images showing the attributes of a proposed architectural design. Commercial demand for hand-drawn rendering has declined as computer generated rendering is replacing human skills. Complex 3D modeling and rendering software are used to create life-like images. This imagery is normally used for presentation, marketing and design analysis purposes.
Architectural 3D models are to scale and use real life textures, materials, colors and finishes. Photo-real / photorealistic renderings come in various types specific to their particular use: Still Renderings, Walk Throughs and Fly By Animations (movies), Virtual Tours, Panoramic Renderings, Light and Shadow (Siagraphy) Study Renderings, Renovation Renderings (Photomontage), and more. 3D photoreal renderings play a major role in real estate sales. It allows architects and designers to make decisions well before a structure is actually built.
Architects and designers can either submit their existing 3D CAD files to us for further rendering or we can create the entire 3D model for them based off of their 2D design drawings. |
