3D visualisation & CGI
Photoreal CGIs, animations and 3D floor plans
- 3D rendering servicesSend us your drawings and we turn them into photoreal CGIs you can put in a planning pack, a sales brochure or a Rightmove listing.First draft in 3 to 5 working days for most single images
- Exterior architectural CGIAn exterior CGI shows the building before it exists: the brick, the cladding, the glazing and the light on the facade, accurate to your elevations.3 to 5 working days for a single exterior view
- Interior CGIInterior CGIs let buyers stand in a room that has not been built yet.About 5 working days per room
- Property development CGIA development is sold, funded and approved on images long before the first plot is finished.Typically 7 to 10 working days for a first set of development views
- Commercial CGICommercial schemes are let and funded on images: a trade counter that shows its signage, an office floor that shows the fit-out, an industrial estate seen from the road.5 to 7 working days for a first set of views
- Planning photomontagesA photomontage shows the proposed building inside an actual photo of its site, so a planning officer, a committee or the neighbours can see exactly how it will sit in the street.5 working days for a before-and-after pair
- Architectural animationA 60-second fly-through does what ten still images cannot: it shows how you arrive, how the rooms connect and how the light falls through the day.Around 7 to 10 working days for a 60-second video
- 3D & 2D floor plansBuyers check the floor plan before they book a viewing.1 to 2 working days
- Virtual stagingEmpty rooms photograph badly and sell slowly.Usually within 24 hours
- Product visualisationManufacturers need images that show a product installed, not just on a white background: a cladding board on a real facade, a window detail in section, a fixing sequence step by step.Quoted per project

Shop drawings
Fabrication drawings for cladding and joinery
