Exterior Rendering Show the future building, facade, landscaping and arrival experience. Useful for development marketing, pre-leasing, investor presentations and design approvals.
Commercial Architectural Visualization
Photoreal Commercial Renderings for Spaces That Do Not Exist Yet.
Interior and exterior CGI visualization for developers, architects, brokers, builders and design teams that need to communicate a proposed development, renovation, tenant improvement or future space before photography is possible.

Why Renderings Matter
When the Finished Space Cannot Be Photographed, You Still Need to Show It.
Renderings translate plans, materials and design intent into imagery that brokers, tenants, investors, owners and stakeholders can understand without reading architectural drawings.
Interior Rendering Visualize finishes, furniture, lighting and the completed tenant experience. Useful for offices, retail, hospitality, medical, amenities and tenant improvements.
Photo-Matched Visualization Place the proposed improvement into real-world context. Useful for renovations, redevelopment, signage, additions and qualifying site-photo integrations.
01
Pre-Leasing + Marketing
Market a future suite, building or redevelopment before the completed space is available for photography.
02
Investor + Stakeholder Presentations
Communicate building form, materials, interiors and design direction in presentations and project meetings.
03
Design Communication
Compare finish schemes, furniture concepts, lighting approaches and other visual design decisions before build-out.
04
Repositioning + Renovation
Show the proposed future of an existing asset when current-condition photography cannot communicate the planned improvement.
Rendering Types
Choose the Visualization That Matches the Decision.
Define the output before modeling begins so the level of detail, viewpoints and revision expectations match the project.
Exterior Renderings
Facade, massing, glazing, signage, landscaping and contextual views in day, dusk or approved presentation conditions.
Interior Renderings
Lobbies, offices, retail, hospitality, medical, amenities and tenant interiors showing finishes, furniture and lighting.
Photo-Matched Views
Qualifying CGI integrated into suitable site photography to communicate a proposed change in real-world context.
Interactive + Motion
360-degree, animated or motion-based visualization can be custom scoped when the project needs more than static images.
Source Material + Design Development The better the inputs, the more efficient the visualization process. Plans, CAD/BIM files, finish schedules, reference photography, manufacturer information and branding can all help define the final rendering.
Source-Driven Workflow
Start With What the Design Team Already Has.
Not every project begins with the same information. We identify the usable source material, what must still be modeled and what decisions remain conceptual before confirming scope.
01 · Drawings Architectural Drawings Plans, elevations, sections and dimensioned drawings can establish geometry when sufficiently complete.
02 · Digital CAD + BIM Files Suitable digital models can reduce redundant modeling and create a stronger technical starting point.
03 · Materials Finish + Material Direction Finish schedules, manufacturer references, paint colors, furniture and approved materials define the visual result.
04 · Context Existing Photography Current-condition images can support photo matching, renovation context and understanding the surrounding environment.
05 · Brand Brand + Signage References Logos, tenant branding and sign packages can be incorporated when supplied in usable formats.
06 · Concept Concept-Only Projects Early designs may require additional interpretation and modeling and should be scoped accordingly.
Important Distinction
A Rendering Shows a Proposal. Photography Documents What Exists.
Both are powerful, but they serve different purposes. The distinction should be obvious to every viewer.
Proposed or Unbuilt Conditions
Use a rendering when the audience needs to visualize something that has not been constructed or finished yet.
- Future buildings + development concepts
- Tenant improvements + renovations
- Alternate materials + finish schemes
- Furniture, lighting + design options
- Conceptual imagery should be identified appropriately
Existing Completed Conditions
Use commercial photography when the goal is to market or document a building, space or completed project as it currently exists.
- Finished buildings + occupied spaces
- Leasing + sales marketing
- Architecture, interiors + amenities
- Current-condition documentation
- Can be coordinated with rendering work where useful
Commercial Visualization Workflow
Define the Vision Before We Build the Image.
Establish the audience, views, source material and revision expectations before modeling begins.
01
Define the Use
Confirm the audience, final media, required image count, viewpoints, target resolution and intended platforms.
02
Review Source Files
Review plans, CAD/BIM files, references, materials and design information to determine modeling requirements.
03
Model + Visualize
Develop approved geometry, materials, lighting, environment and camera angles according to the defined scope.
04
Review + Finalize
Complete the defined revision rounds and prepare approved final images for the intended marketing or presentation use.
Pricing + Project Scope
Commercial Renderings Start at $200.
Two projects of the same square footage can require very different amounts of modeling and visualization work. Final pricing is driven by complexity, source material and the requested deliverables.

Commercial Rendering FAQ
Questions to Resolve Before Visualization Begins.
How much do commercial renderings cost?
Current published pricing starts at $200. Final pricing depends on source files, modeling required, number of views, materials, scene complexity, revision scope and required output.
What files can you work from?
Depending on the project, suitable plans, elevations, CAD or BIM information, finish schedules, specifications, reference images and existing site photographs can be used to establish the rendering scope.
Are renderings considered photographs?
No. Renderings are computer-generated visualizations representing proposed, conceptual or unbuilt conditions. They should not be presented as documentary photographs of an existing completed space.
Can you create both interior and exterior renderings?
Yes. Commercial projects can include exterior building views, interiors, tenant improvements, amenity areas and other approved perspectives.
Can you show alternate finishes or design options?
Yes. Multiple approved material, furniture, lighting or design options can be produced when those variations are included in the scope.
Can renderings be integrated into site photography?
Yes for qualifying projects. Photo-matched visualization can place proposed improvements into suitable site photography when the source image and project information support the intended result.
Do you create animations or 360-degree visuals?
These can be custom scoped when the project needs motion, walkthrough-style visualization or interactive presentation rather than static still images.
How many revisions are included?
The revision allowance should be established in the quote before production begins. Design changes after approved modeling or additional revision rounds may require added scope.

Commercial renderings are conceptual or proposed visualizations unless otherwise expressly stated and are not substitutes for architectural, engineering, code, permitting, survey or construction documents. Final pricing is subject to scope confirmation based on source files, model complexity, number of views, materials, contextual elements, revisions, timing and intended usage.
