3D renders, often known as 3D visualisations, CGIs, or architectural renders, are photorealistic images or animations created through the process of rendering a 2D image from a 3D model, by a specialised Render Designer using complex software tools. 

Essentially, they’re an artist’s impression derived from your architectural plans and can be described as a virtual scene or perspective conceptualising the design of your project. 

The process of creating a 3D render involves taking a 3D model and selecting photorealistic angles, then adding textures and lighting. Objects are also added, like furnishings, decor, styling, landscaping, vehicles, and figures, to create an image that is almost indistinguishable from an actual photo. Each architectural rendering is completely unique and can be stylised to reflect the smallest and most specific design details. 

A 3D render brings a project to life when construction is only a twinkle in the eye of the developer, planner or architect. It gives your audience a glimpse of the completed project, right down to the finer details, enabling them to visualise the final product and all of its unique fixtures, finishes and design features. A 3D render is an unbeatable selling or communication tool, showcasing the complete picture of a project just as you imagined it – so you don’t have to.

3D rendering services involve the creation of photorealistic images or animations that depict a completed project or design, often before it’s constructed in real life. With specialised rendering software, our expert Render Designers transform 2D plans or concepts into immersive architectural visualisations that accurately depict the built form, interior layout, landscaping, materials, and the unique selling features of a project.

With 3D rendering services, audiences can visualise and explore a project from various angles and perspectives before any physical construction takes place. This allows for better decision-making, helping planners to make adjustments to designs, developers and designers to experiment with finishes, colours and materials, and buyers to understand the look of the final project when they’re buying off the plan, building new, or renovating. 

At GT Images, our team specialises in creating custom, high-quality 3D architectural renders that capture the essence of your design, showcasing it with absolute accuracy to create a photorealistic perspective. From standalone residential homes to property developments, master-planned communities, industrial precincts, commercial buildings and everything in between, we create captivating 3D renders that reflect your vision.

Perhaps the most commonly asked question we receive! 3D renders are arguably the most important creative element in the planning, marketing and selling of a project, and so we understand the urgency.  At GT Images, we’re committed to the prompt delivery of your 3D architectural renders, without ever compromising on their quality. 

The timeline for completing a project depends on several factors, including the complexity of the design, the number of iterations required, and the project’s scope. Typically, we provide estimated delivery times for your architectural renderings in our initial quotation, and we strive to meet the agreed deadlines to ensure the timely delivery of your project.

At GT Images we specialise in 3D rendering and architectural visualisation services for a wide range of clients, such as real estate agents, town planners, property developers, builders, architects, and designers. Our expertise covers various types of projects including residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional developments, from all phases of the development process, from town planning to marketing, and even VCAT and DA photomontages.
