We've built a dedicated page for that, with real case studies and the render types apartment developers actually need.

A render shows the vision. Architectural 3D rendering, also called architectural CGI or architectural visualization, turns your drawings, CAD files, or 3D models into photorealistic exterior images. These images show the building, the site, the light, landscape, and the context. That makes your project easier to explain, approve, promote, and sell.

Architectural 3D rendering is the process of turning plans, CAD files, or sketches into photorealistic images of a building before it is built. Architects and developers use these exterior renders, also called architectural CGI, for planning applications, client presentations, and property marketing. ### How long does a 3D architectural render take to produce? Most exterior renders take 5 to 10 working days, depending on the number of views and level of detail. Rush turnaround is available for tight planning deadlines. ### Do you offer revisions? Yes. Every project includes revision rounds covering massing, materials, lighting, and landscaping until the render matches your design. ### How much do 3D architectural rendering services cost? Pricing depends on the number of views, building complexity, and turnaround time. Send your drawings and we will quote a fixed price before work starts. ### What file formats do you need to get started? We work from CAD files, Revit, SketchUp, PDF plans, or hand drawn sketches. If you only have site photos or a floor plan, we can still model the building from those. ### Can you update the render if the design changes? Yes. We can revise the CGI when drawings change. We confirm any added cost before completing work outside the original scope. ### Do you offer commercial architectural 3D rendering? Yes. We render offices, retail, warehouses, mixed-use schemes, and other commercial buildings for planning, leasing, and investor presentations, using the same street-level, aerial, and dusk views we produce for residential projects. ### What is the difference between architectural rendering and architectural visualization? They are used almost interchangeably. Architectural rendering usually means the finished still image, while architectural visualization covers the wider service, including 3D animation, 360 virtual tours, and VR. We offer both from one studio.
