Vintage Courts House Renderings

Remember when home builders would construct a street of show homes? You would walk down the street, in and out of each model, until you found the perfect place for your family. Well, those times are a long gone and now you can do it digitally.

Here is a series of semi-custom home renderings for my friends in Canada. What a great attention to detail in the design, from materials, to floor plans. Do you have a favorite?

Follower Feedback

I should’ve also mentioned this a while ago, but I owe you a lot.

You have been my sole source of inspiration since I started working in this field 12 years ago, your quality, attention to minute details that others always neglect, accompanied by your keen eye for scale and composition is unmatched till today I would say, it’s people like you who should never be worried about losing their jobs to AI.

so just thank you, like a lot

Hillside Manor Mansion Rendering

What a journey! Sometimes I get a project I know will be a bear, knowing what I am getting into, and take it because it looks to be an incredible house. The Hillside Manor Mansion is one of these projects. Not only is the house complicated, on a complicated site plan, there were no CAD drawings; everything was hand drawn. 99% of the time I turn away projects that are hand drawn. Why? I get to figure out so many things on the computer, and that can take a whole lot of time.

I recommend all projects to be built virtually, regardless. Home-owners, listen up, you’ll be paying a lot of money to fix things in the field. Worse yet, you’ll have to live with errors for the rest of your life.

The Hillside Manor Mansion is a beautiful home, and was worthy of a high-quality rendering. It was a bear, but was worthwhile to create.

The renders came out amazing!! I’d like to discuss working with you on all my real estate projects. I develop apartment buildings and bring historic buildings back to life as well. I’d like renderings for all my current projects. You make the best 3D renderings I’ve ever seen!

1295 House Rendering

House rendering 1295 is the little brother to another house I did. The request was having it on a lake, which, as you can see, I have included. To have more control over my images, I don’ t use a lot of photos in my images; I model almost everything. The roof isn’t a displacement, which most use, it is actually geometry, same as the lake, it is all modeled. This way, my lighting matches the backplate. Otherwise, your back plate dictates your lighting, which isn’t alway optimal for the best images.

Annendale House Rendering

The Annandale House is a stock home, well designed and beautiful. White exterior, with black windows, and a darker roof is a trend that I like. I also like the splash of color coming from the wood. I enjoy the fact that the garage door isn’t the focal point, perched on the front of the house; we Americans love our cars

Steeple Rock Interior Renderings

It isn’t too often that I get just interiors; they usually they come with exteriors. Steeple Rock was just interiors, a set of five interior renderings. All the fixtures and materials were custom, per the designer’s mood board.

When I received the brief for this rendering project, it came with a set of construction documents, which, on the cover, had an exterior rendering. Their exterior rendering was probably created from the building information model (BIM), which is usually pretty low-quality. With the high quality of these interior renderings, I hope it encourages my client to have me create them a better exterior rendering for their marketing needs.

Ashland House Rendering

The Ashland House Rendering has some of my favorite materials. I am a huge brick fan-boy, and white board and batten are my thing, too. The beauty of this house is enhanced by the black windows and wood accents.

Luxury House Interior Renderings

Interior renderings, for me, are super fun. I think staging, along with the lighting, is key for a successful interior architectural rendering.

Talk about cabinet space in the kitchen; a chief’s dream. The last image gives you a glimpse of the exceptional pool from the interior/exterior patio.

Buckingham Mansion Rendering

The Buckingham Mansion Rendering in print publication, which is exciting to me. I have had several of my projects printed up in magazines, for both online and print.

The aim with the Buckingham Mansion Rendering was to impress with landscape. The landscape part of the rendering was critical for the architect. Although I removed more vegetation than I added, to not obscure features of the house, I think it turned out wonderful.

The architect chose the views, so if these don’t look as composed as my other work, that is why. Also, the white fluffy clouds were required by the architect, which isn’t my style, but they look fine to me.

Twilight version to follow, so please stay tuned.

Double Day House Rendering

Here is another architectural rendering whose sole purpose is to live on a construction sign. Once I print the rendering, mount it, and put it on a sign, I’ll ask the builder to snap a photo and I’ll share, so stay tuned.

Battlewood House Rendering

My clientele is a mixture of architects, developers, real estate agents, home builders, home plan designers, homeowners, and contractors.

The Battlewood House Rendering was created for a site construction sign, which is been a recent trend. I believe i have done 1/2 a dozen construction sign renderings over the past two months. I love it when they send me a photo of the sign, after they erected it.

Battlewood House Rendering

The Battlewood House Rendering is a little unique, in there wasn’t a site plan, or landscape plan, and they were not too concerned showing anything. Their primary interest was something quick so they can make the sign.

9609 Georgetown Pike Rendering

What a grand house, the 9609 Georgetown Pike house. Cedar Shake has become pretty common over the years, and I can see why, it is a beautiful material. I’ll have to say, a good percentage of the houses I illustrate are cedar shake with white trim. Hey, if it works, you keep doing it. It is timeless, so I think it’ll be around for a long time.

Quarter Desk Resort Renderings

Time for my clients’ quarterly Q1 meeting and they need some eye-candy, which is where I come in. These interior renderings are for a new project that they are getting ready to break ground on once their ground thaws out, that is.

I enjoy the warm tones. Wood and stone are always a favorite of mine. I hope these renderings create the splash that they are after.

AirBnB Rendering - Turnbuckle Ranch

Another great use for an architectural rendering… list it long before you can take photos of it, with some professionally create renderings

This project was a challenge. Typically, I work from a set of architectural renderings, but with the Turnbuckle Ranch renderings, I didn’t have that luxury. Below is an example of what I received.

No problem, I was up for the challenge. I am also happy to help someone reach their objective, which was to get their ranch on AirBnB before construction is done, and before the season starts.

Another magnificent house from a talented designer. Modern homes are not my thing, I am more of a traditional guy, but after seeing the Peavy House Rendering, I can like the modern home. The pool design is insane!

Underhill Road Renderings

Welcome to the virtual Underhill development. There are a series of eleven homes and for each home, there is an elevation and perspective. The project also included a few “hero” shots, which I think help tell the story. When I am initially contacted by a potential client, I send out a questionnaire, which asks questions so i can help tell the story. Project budgets are important, but telling the story is also important. I think “hero” shots are a great way to tell that story in a way an overall image just can’t do. I mean, would you really know that there is a lower level entrance if you did not have the ‘hero’ shot of a man walking down the stairs? Would you know the porches were designed on each house to be part of the community, or would you know it was a family community without seeing kids playing?

I employed a few new techniques on these (always looking for ways to improve). if you notice, there are things in every window. It is very subtle, but gives the windows depth. Also, I warped the glass, to give it more interest, with a subtle boost of blue in the window tint.

Another grand project from a blue chip client.

515 East Washington Street House Renderings

When this referral client reached out to me about this house, I got excited. I am a huge fan of architecture, and a house like this gets my blood flowing.

I request AutoCAD files, since I prefer starting with those, but sometimes those are not available. Here, they were not, and I received a SketchUp model. There are obstacles starting with people’s model that I have mentioned before, and this one was a booger. I spent about twice the time cleaning up flipped normals, double geometry, and all other kinds of bad geometry than modeling from CAD files. I am a pretty calm person, and it takes a lot to get me mad. I can’t tell you how many times I yelled to myself that I’ll never take someone’s model ever again! This wasn’t my clients’ model, it was the architects.

I think these turned out wonderfully, and I hope you agree; my client did!

FANTASTIC WORK! Thank you Bobby
