3D Rendering Service prices Vary Based on Complexity and Quantity of Rooms, Floors and Type of View

There are many factors involved in working out how much your next architectural rendering will cost.

Out prices vary depending on a lot of different factors including the:

  • type of 3d render

  • number of views

  • amount of rooms

  • what industry you're in (eg. some marketing companies require more high end designs for their campaigns)

  • whether you already have an idea of the details your render should include or what it will look like

  • whether you need an animation or virtual reality tour

  • how complex your project is

  • how long the files will take to process based on the quality required

  • how much detail you need in the image final product

  • how much hands on help you need with the service;

  • and more.

That's why it's so important to get in touch with us directly so we can properly price out the details of your project and give you an accurate cost / pricing for the final renders up front. We think you'll find our cost and prices very competitive!

How much do 3D Floor Plan renderings cost?

Our floor plan service is one of our most inexpensive types of work. Renderings can be produced in various image qualities, for example, some projects only require black and white line work, others require full color 3d renders that include furniture and other interior elements. These aspects of your final image can change the price / cost considerably.

How much does interior rendering cost?

Our design studio loves doing interior render projects, whether they're commercial or residential, as they can really allow our inner artist to come out and to fully encapsulate your creativity in the final images. Whether we're designing just one room or many related spaces will impact the cost, but you can expect pricing to start at $249 per space.

How much does Exterior 3D visualization cost?

Exterior projects can be quite affordable, depending on the level of detail you require in your final images. For example, we could keep the environment quite simple, which would keep the price for your images cheaper. Or we can include greenery, landscaping and other environmental aspects so that you can see exactly what the exterior of your development will look like in real life.

How much does a Residential 3D rendering cost Compared to a Commercial Architectural Visualization?

Most of our prices above are for residential rather than commercial visualization projects. Prices typically go up for commercial projects (you'll find this with all architectural visualization studios) because commercial buildings are larger and take more time to design, and require a greater number of project images.

How much do 3D animations cost?

Our animation services typically cost more than our other services, as they are much more complex, requiring both the still 3d designs, along with the rendering to fly or walk through the environment. This increases both design and processing time, which increases overall prices.

Totally Unique Clients Require Totally Unique Prices!

3d architectural rendering is a totally unique service that is customized based on our client’s needs. Our team of professionals create a custom quote so that you get the best price available. Because each of our jobs is completely unique, however, the above prices should be seen as a guideline only and we are unable to tell you how much your job will cost before going over your specifications. What we can tell you for sure, is how much you can save by outsourcing your 3d visualization job versus trying to take care of the project yourself, and that you will get the best pricing we can possibly offer, and a very high quality of rendering output.

Benefits of 3d Architectural Rendering Services

There are many benefits of working with a high quality 3D artist like the ones we have on our team, including:

Work With Amazing 3D CAD Artists

If you want an amazing final product that will impress any client or stakeholder and that has high attention to detail you shouldn't limit yourself to a studio or artist in your local area.

We offer the most competitive pricing out of any of the studios in North America, we have a huge team with hundreds of thousands of hours of combined experience that we've sourced from around the globe, and we have over 300 five star reviews on Google. You can trust us to do a great job for a very affordable price.

Outsourcing 3D Rendering Saves Time

One of the most difficult things about trying to construct a 3D render on your own is learning the software. When factoring in your time, the rendering cost of hiring a company ends up being much more cost effective. It takes hours of studying and professional training to get even the basic skills of design studios, much less having the skill level that our experts have after thousands and thousands of renderings. Amateur renderings are also no comparison to professional ones.

Wanting to learn new tasks and save money in your business is a good idea. The key is knowing when you can take on the work yourself and when you need to outsource. Once you factor in the time, skill, and money it takes to construct a 3D rendering yourself, you will probably agree that outsourcing your 3D rendering project really is the best option.

Outsourcing 3D Visualization Saves Money and can be surprisingly cheap

As if the time and knowledge issues aren’t enough, the software and computer equipment needed to make high quality 3d architectural rendering files is very expensive. With a 3D architectural rendering company or studio, the cost makes sense because we take on many clients and many projects. With a company who just needs a rendering service as a phase of their business development, or a small amount of renderings over time, it is not something that will prove to be worth the investment as the rendering price is a much lower cost than the outlay for studio quality equipment.

What Costs Can You Expect for a rendering?

Each rendering we do for our clients is individually priced. In order to do this, we ask potential clients to send us their blueprints / drawings / plans / elevations / sketches / pictures. Once we have this information, our team will personally have a look at your requirements and price your project in as little as 5-10 minutes after you send us your information. In fact we can often have your renderings completed before other companies even get back to you with a quote.
