Question 1

What is architectural visualization?

Accepted Answer

Architectural visualization is the photorealistic depiction of buildings, interiors, and urban development projects before they are built. Using 3D software such as 3ds Max, V-Ray, and Corona Renderer, we create high-quality images that portray materials, lighting, and surroundings as realistically as possible. The result helps architects, investors, and developers make a project tangible during the planning phase.

Question 2

Who benefits from architectural visualization?

Accepted Answer

Our services are aimed at architecture firms, real estate developers, general contractors, property owners, and marketing agencies. Whether for competitions, sales documentation, or building permits, professional visualizations are an effective communication tool at every project stage. We also serve private clients who want to preview their renovation or new build.

Question 3

Where are your offices located?

Accepted Answer

We have two locations: our headquarters is in Bonaduz, Graubunden, and our second office is in Zurich. This allows us to be locally accessible in both the greater Zurich area and the Graubunden region. Client meetings and consultations are possible at either location.

Question 4

Do you work with international clients?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we regularly collaborate with international clients. Thanks to digital communication tools and our well-established remote workflow, we can manage projects worldwide. We communicate in German and English, and data exchange works seamlessly via common cloud services.

Question 5

How can I contact you?

Accepted Answer

You can reach us by email, phone, or through the contact form on our website. For an initial, no-obligation consultation, you can also schedule an appointment at our office in Bonaduz or Zurich. We typically respond within 24 hours.

Question 6

How much does an interior visualization cost?

Accepted Answer

A photorealistic interior visualization starts from CHF 350.- per image. The final price depends on the complexity of the space, the desired level of detail, and the number of furnishing variants. We are happy to provide a tailored quote in a personal consultation that is precisely matched to your needs.

Question 7

How much does an exterior visualization cost?

Accepted Answer

Photorealistic exterior visualizations start from CHF 530.- per image. Factors such as building size, landscape design, surroundings, and the desired time of day influence the effort and therefore the price. After an initial project discussion, we provide a transparent quote.

Question 8

How much does an AI visualization cost?

Accepted Answer

AI-powered visualizations are available from as little as CHF 100.- and are especially suited for early design phases, ideation, and variant studies. They offer excellent value for money with shorter production times. Contact us with your project documents for a customized quote.

Question 9

Do you offer volume discounts?

Accepted Answer

Yes, for larger orders with multiple visualizations, we offer attractive volume discounts. The more images you commission in a single project, the lower the per-image price becomes. Get in touch with us directly, and we will create a tailored package offer that fits your budget.

Question 10

How does payment work?

Accepted Answer

We typically require a 50% deposit upon confirmation of the order and the remaining 50% upon completion and approval of the visualizations. We accept bank transfers and issue proper invoices with Swiss VAT. For larger projects, individual payment arrangements are possible.

Question 11

What does the project workflow look like?

Accepted Answer

After receiving your documents, we first create a 3D model of your project and jointly define camera angles, lighting mood, and materials. In the next step, you receive a preview for discussion before we render the final visualization in high resolution. The entire process is closely coordinated with you to ensure the result matches your vision.

Question 12

How long does a visualization take?

Accepted Answer

Production time depends on the complexity of the project. Typically, a single photorealistic visualization takes between 5 and 10 working days. AI visualizations can often be delivered within 1 to 3 days. For urgent projects, we also offer express production upon request.

Question 13

What documents do you need?

Accepted Answer

Ideally, we need floor plans, sections, elevations, and, if available, a 3D model (e.g., from ArchiCAD, Revit, or SketchUp). Additional information about materials, colors, and desired furnishings is also helpful. The more complete the documents, the faster and more accurately we can work.

Question 14

Are revisions included in the price?

Accepted Answer

Yes, two rounds of revisions are included as standard. These cover adjustments to camera angles, materials, lighting, and furnishings. Further changes that go beyond the original briefing scope are charged separately by effort and discussed with you in advance.

Question 15

Can I track the progress?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We keep you informed at every project phase and provide intermediate results. Through our digital project communication, you receive regular updates and can provide feedback at any time. Video conferences for joint review of interim results are also available upon request.

Question 16

What types of visualizations do you offer?

Accepted Answer

We offer photorealistic interior and exterior visualizations, AI-powered visualizations, 360-degree panoramas, virtual tours, and architectural animations. Additionally, we create sales documentation, site plans, and area visualizations. Our range of services covers all phases of an architectural project.

Question 17

What is the difference between photorealistic and AI visualization?

Accepted Answer

Photorealistic visualizations are manually created in 3D software such as 3ds Max with V-Ray or Corona Renderer and offer the highest level of detail and control over every element. AI visualizations are generated using artificial intelligence, are more cost-effective (from CHF 100.-), and available faster, but are better suited for concept phases and variant studies than for final sales materials.

Question 18

Do you also offer animations?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we create architectural animations that bring your project to life, from elegant camera movements through interiors to flyovers of entire developments. Animations are produced with professional tools such as 3ds Max, Lumion, and Cinema 4D. They are ideal for presentations, websites, and social media campaigns.

Question 19

What are Virtual Tours?

Accepted Answer

Virtual Tours are interactive 360-degree walkthroughs that allow viewers to move freely through a building. They are created based on our 3D models and can easily be embedded via a link on websites, in exposés, or on real estate portals. Virtual Tours provide an immersive experience and are a powerful sales tool for new development projects.

Question 20

Do you also create sales documentation?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we support real estate developers and architects in creating complete sales documentation. This includes floor plan preparations, site plans, material boards, and of course high-quality visualizations. All documents are professionally designed and can be used directly for marketing and sales.

Question 21

What software do you use?

Accepted Answer

For photorealistic visualizations, we primarily use 3ds Max combined with V-Ray and Corona Renderer. For animations and real-time visualizations, we also use Lumion, Cinema 4D, and Unreal Engine. Our post-production is done in Adobe Photoshop and After Effects to finalize every image at the highest level.

Question 22

What resolution are the images delivered in?

Accepted Answer

By default, we deliver images at a resolution of at least 4000 x 2500 pixels, which is suitable for both print products and digital media. Upon request, we also produce higher resolutions for large-format prints, posters, or exhibition displays. The resolution is agreed upon together with you before the project starts.

Question 23

What file formats will I receive?

Accepted Answer

Final visualizations are delivered as standard in high-resolution JPEG and PNG files. Upon request, we also provide TIFF files for professional printing or PSD files with layers for further editing. Animations are typically delivered as MP4 (H.264) or Apple ProRes for professional editing.

Question 24

Can you process 3D models from different programs?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we process 3D models from all common architecture programs such as ArchiCAD, Revit, SketchUp, Rhino, and Vectorworks. General 3D formats such as FBX, OBJ, and 3DS are also supported. If necessary, we can also create the 3D model entirely from your 2D plans and sections.

Question 25

Do you use AI technology?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we strategically integrate AI technology into our workflow to achieve faster and more cost-effective results. We use AI-based image generation particularly for concept visualizations, style studies, and variant exploration. At the same time, we combine AI with traditional 3D rendering methods to ensure the best possible quality and control.
