The Architectural Visualization industry is the key to the new era of Interior Design. Allowing clients to see exactly what they are getting before it is built and allowing for open dialogue on changes, design features, lighting quality and many other aspects creates a tool for designers unlike ever seen before. With most clients not having a design or architecture background understanding the end product is always a battle. Hand sketches and renderings can evoke a feel, scale or quality but can easily be perceived differently by each viewer.

With technology changing at such a rapid pace all industries are looking to computers to make processes faster, more economical or more precise. The movie business has seen an even greater affect than interiors with the use of 3D visualization software.

The rapid pace of this industry is bringing out some amazing talent that could truly make the design of your next project far superior. CG Architect does a competition every year to showcase the industries talent in images and animation. I have been following the progress of the capabilities and skills over the last few years and am never disappointed and always jaw dropped over the talent consuming the 3D market. Below you will see a small selection of my favorite pieces of images from this years competition. I hope they inspire your curiosity for future projects and captivate your belief in using them as a design tool that ALWAYS brings a wow out of clients.
