3D Rendering Guides
For UK developers, housebuilders, architects, interior designers and estate agents who commission CGIs rather than make them. Each guide answers one question clients ask before they brief a studio: what a render is, what to send, how long it takes, how visuals support a planning application and how to sell off-plan with them.
Looking for prices? Every published figure is on one page: 3D rendering cost in the UK.
All guides
Written by our studio director from real client questions, and updated whenever the process or UK planning guidance changes.
