We render the finish you specified, not one that looks like it
Interior design rendering is only worth anything to a designer if it survives contact with the schedule.
Your finishes list, your FF&E spec, your joinery drawings. That oak, that slab, that tile at that grout width. Where a material has no reliable reference we ask for a photograph of the sample instead of guessing, and if one is still approximate we tell you which one before you present it.
Most suppliers work from a mood board and a library of stock materials. It presents well, and then the sample arrives and the veining is wrong, the sheen is wrong, and the client remembers the picture rather than the schedule. That is an expensive conversation and it is always the designer who has to have it.
Working from the schedule costs an extra pass at the front of the job and removes the argument at the end of it.
When the schedule still has gaps
A studio rarely has every fitting confirmed when the first image is needed. We build an open item as a placeholder and flag it, so a scheme with open decisions still gets one full image, on the date the meeting is booked for.
Why a correction here is cheap
A rejected sample board means new boards. A render that gets a note in the same meeting means adjusting a scene that already exists, inside the revision rounds already budgeted for: the saving of moving 3D rendering for interior design earlier.
See signed-off schemes below.
What actually changes when the image is full size
01
Sign-off in one round instead of three
A sample board asks a client to assemble the room in their head, and most cannot. They approve the board, then react to the finished space, and that reaction lands after the joinery is ordered. A full-size image moves it into the meeting, where changing your mind is free.
We render the two angles a client will argue about: the one they see from the door and the one they sit in. A disagreement that can be pointed at gets settled in a sentence. A disagreement that has to be described takes another round.
02
An image that still holds when the material arrives
The worst sentence on a handover is that this is not what the picture showed. It happens when a render used a generic oak instead of the board on your schedule, and it lands on you, not on whoever made the image.
So the model is built to the schedule and we tell you what each surface was made as. If a finish cannot be matched honestly we say so before rendering rather than substituting something close and letting the site find out.
03
Options priced as options, not as new projects
The scene stays built after delivery. A second colourway, a darker stone, the sofa the client saw somewhere else: all of it comes off a model that already exists, so a variant costs a fraction of the first image.
That protects the fee as much as the schedule does. When a late change is cheap to produce it stops being a negotiation about scope and becomes a normal part of presenting.
Four things design studios ask us for
Briefs from a design studio are usually one of these, and often two of them in the same project.
Scheme presentation sets
The room from the angles a client judges it on, lit to the hour they will use it in. Enough of the space to read as a place, not a catalogue shot of a sofa.
Finish and colourway options
The same room in two or three material directions, cut from one scene and lit identically, so the client is choosing between schemes rather than between photographs.
Joinery and fitted furniture
Wardrobes, islands, panelling and built-in storage at the distance a client inspects them. Shadow gaps, handle positions and door swings as the drawing has them.
Contract and hospitality schemes
Hotel rooms, restaurants and workplace fit-outs, where one scheme repeats across a floor and has to clear an operator as well as an owner.
Three points where a render earns its place
The same finishes-accurate scene earns its keep before and after the presentation meeting too.
The pitch, before a finish is fixed
Early on, the brief is direction, not decisions: warmer or cooler, panelling or plaster. A loose, styled image settles that in one meeting.
Sign-off, against the finished schedule
The point most studios call us for: the scheme built to your finishes list, for the meeting that decides the joinery order.
After handover, for the studio's own record
A second colourway or an awards submission comes off a model that already exists.
A studio partner, not a render farm
European delivery, workable time zones
An Estonian studio working since 2013 across the Nordics, the Baltics, Europe, the UK, the US, Canada and Australia. Comments in the evening, a revised frame by morning.
Confidentiality as standard
Unconsented schemes, competition entries and unannounced launches are commercially sensitive. We work under NDA without being asked and never publish a project without permission.
You brief the artist, not a queue
No account-manager layer. Send the files, get a real number, talk to the person building the scene. Fewer hand-offs is why the first preview lands closer to right.
One consistent visual language
Across a set, or across years of repeat work, the light, materials and camera discipline hold. Ten freelancers cannot do that, and it is visible on page four of a brochure.
Three questions worth asking any rendering partner
Do they build from your schedule, or a library?
Ask what happens when a finish has no exact match on file. A close substitute instead of a flagged approximation means the schedule and the picture disagree once the sample arrives.
Is confidentiality standard, or a special request?
An unannounced scheme needs an NDA before the first file is sent, not after you ask for one. A studio that needs asking tells you how the rest of the relationship will run.
What happens to the scene after delivery?
A model discarded once the invoice is paid makes your next colourway a new commission at full price. Ask whether it is kept, and for how long.
Four stages, whatever you commissioned
Brief
Brief and fixed quote
Upload CAD, PDF, Revit or SketchUp files, or a photo of a sketch. We prepare the brief from your files, so there is no questionnaire. You get one fixed project price and a delivery date within 30 minutes.
Days 1-3
Clay model
We build the 3D model without materials and place the camera. The viewpoint, lens, height and time of day are agreed on this grey model, when changes are quick and cheap.
Week 1
Preview render
The same view with materials, lighting and surroundings added. You see it early, while the light and the finishes can still be changed easily. 2 revision rounds are included, and we keep refining until you approve.
Delivery
Final render
The approved image, fully finished and delivered in 4K, with larger sizes for print on request and full usage rights. Every further view in the set uses the scene already built, so each extra image costs much less than the first.
Rooms from schemes that got signed off
Rooms from design studio and developer projects across Europe and the UK. Names are left off because most of this was made under NDA.
What moves a quote for a design studio
Priced per project, not per image. This is what changes the number for a design studio's scheme.
-
Number of rooms in the scheme
The first room carries the scene build. A second room costs less, because the workflow is already set.
-
How complete your finishes schedule is
An open decision costs a little more than a locked one, because we build a placeholder and flag it rather than guessing.
-
How many colourway options you need
A second material direction off the same scene is a fraction of the first image's cost.

How we plug into your workflow
Send what a design studio already produces. A set of plans and a half-finished schedule is enough to quote from, and nothing needs tidying up first.
What we accept
Plans and elevationsCAD, PDF, SketchUp, Revit or ArchiCAD. A hand sketch photographed on a phone is enough to quote from
Finishes scheduleThe FF&E list, the material spec, the joinery drawings, in whatever state they are currently in
SamplesA photograph of the real sample, for anything with visible grain, veining or weave
Mood boardPinterest, a PDF, or three images you like. It sets the light and the styling, not the materials
The roomsA list of spaces and roughly where you want to stand in each, or we propose the angles
What you receive
Stills4K as standard, higher on request, in every crop the presentation and your site need
A clay view firstCamera, layout and proportions agreed on a grey model before a single material goes on
A material noteWhat each surface was built as, so the image and the schedule agree in writing
RevisionsTwo rounds included, then refinement until you sign off
Usage rightsFull and unrestricted: your site, your client's, print, awards entries
The sceneKept, so the next colourway or the extra angle is a small job rather than a new one
What else comes off the same scene

Virtual staging3D rendering for interior designers, answered
The questions we are asked most before a project starts. Still unsure? Send the drawings and we will tell you what we would do with them.
Ask us directlyWhat is 3D rendering for interior designers?
It is the scheme you have drawn, rebuilt as a 3D room and photographed inside software before anything is ordered. The layout comes off your plans, the surfaces come off your finishes schedule, the furniture comes off your FF&E list, and the room is lit to a real hour of a real day. It is what you put in front of a client instead of a sample board: the space at full size, in its own light, in the materials you actually specified.
Can you match the exact materials and finishes I have specified?
Yes, and it is the one thing worth insisting on. Send the schedule and we build to it rather than reaching for a stock oak that reads similar. For anything with visible grain, veining or weave we will ask for a photograph of the real sample, which tells us more than a supplier code does. If a finish cannot be matched honestly we say which one is approximate before you present it, not afterwards.
Can I present the renders as my own studio's work?
Yes. Usage rights are full and unrestricted, covering your presentation, your website, your client's marketing, print and awards entries. We are a supplier to your studio, not a co-author of your scheme, and nothing is published without written permission.
How many views does a scheme usually need?
Fewer than studios tend to budget for. One well-chosen angle settles the argument, and the rooms worth rendering are the ones the client has an opinion about: the kitchen, the living space, the main bathroom, the master bedroom. A second angle earns its place where a room reads differently from the door than from the seating. Anything after the first image in a room is much cheaper, because the scene is already standing.
What do you need from me to start?
Plans and elevations in whatever format you work in, the finishes schedule however rough, and a mood board if you have one. CAD, PDF, SketchUp, Revit and ArchiCAD are all normal here, and a photograph of a hand sketch is enough to get a price. We read the drawings and write the brief ourselves, so the first thing you do is send files, not answer questions.
Can you show the same room in two colourways?
Yes, and it is one of the most useful things we do for designers. Both versions come out of one scene with the camera and the light held identical, so your client compares two schemes rather than two photographs. The second option costs a fraction of the first because the model is shared. Three or four directions on one room is a normal request.
How long does it take?
A single room is about a week. A full scheme of six to twelve images runs two to three weeks. You see an untextured clay view within days, which is where camera, layout and proportion get agreed. If you have a client meeting already in the diary, tell us the date when you send the files.
How is it priced?
Per project rather than per image, because a single bathroom and a twelve-room scheme are not the same job. The drivers are the number of views, how complex the rooms are, how complete your schedule is and how much styling the images need. Send the drawings and you get one fixed number and a delivery date within 30 minutes.
What should I ask before choosing a 3D rendering partner?
Whether they build from your schedule or a stock library, and what happens to the scene after delivery. The answers say more than a portfolio does.
Can you work on a project in my country?
Yes. We are an Estonian studio that has worked remotely since 2013, with projects delivered in 17 countries across the Nordics, Europe, the UK, the US, Canada and Australia. A design studio sends plans, a schedule and sample photographs; we send clay views and stills back. None of it needs us in the same city, and the time difference tends to help: notes left in your evening are usually answered by your morning.
Send the plans and the schedule, get a fixed quote before the client meeting
Design studios: one number and a delivery date within 30 minutes, built from the finishes list you have already written. Tell us the date the meeting is booked for.
We take a limited number of projects each month.
