This front elevation rendering was created for Devex Properties in Colorado. I always enjoy working with Devex Properties to develop these artistic renderings because they are a great team who knows exactly what they need making every rendering a straight forward process.

A common challenge I run into when creating scenes for front elevations like this is the landscaping. Many front elevations like this one are built on narrow lots that typically have other houses really close on the left and right. We like to keep our composition size consistent with all our renderings (14"X7.5" has been our standard for many years) and when we are not able to model the flanking homes we need to get creative with the landscaping. The challenge is to not make it look like the house is isolated in the deep woods while covering the background and midground on the sides. We also want the focus to stay on the home as that is the primary subject of any architectural rendering. With this being said we do realize that these compositions will be cropped for individual needs which is why we render these images at a super high resolution. This gives plenty of flexibility for printing oversized images and for cropping the images to fit marketing material. 

Also with more landscaping and more trees comes the need for more CPU rendering power. As we continue to invest in our work stations at Artist Rendering we also continue to push the limitations of the 3D software and rendering engines to keep the quality of the images moving forward. The clarity and sharpness of this exterior rendering and other recent renderings have been vastly improved over the past few months with some recent investments. The trees are more realistic and the lighting has more depth.

We look forward to many more front elevation renderings, exterior perspective renderings, interior renderings and more. Even after 15+ years, creating these renderings remains as exciting as the first!
