Architectural rendering services
Architectural rendering turns a model into presentation imagery. A single exterior still costs $150–$900 depending on detail, entourage and revision rounds; hourly, visualisers bill $30–$85 in the US and EU and $15–$40 in North Africa, the Gulf, Nigeria or South Asia.
US / EU rate

Time to hire
Clay draft in two to three days, final images in one to two weeks for a small set.
What the scope usually includes
- Camera set-up and composition approved before full render
- Materials, lighting and entourage to an agreed reference board
- Stated resolution and file format per image
- Named number of revision rounds, usually two
How to screen candidates
- Compare their portfolio against the building type you actually have
- Ask for a low-resolution clay draft before final render
- Confirm revision rounds and what counts as a new image
- Check they can work from your Revit or SketchUp model directly

Frequently asked questions
- How much does an architectural rendering cost?
- $150–$900 per still image is the usual band, with interiors and heavily populated street scenes at the top. Hourly rates are $30–$85 in the US and EU and $15–$40 in MENA, Africa and South Asia.
- What drives rendering price up?
- Entourage and context, interior detail, night or dusk lighting, high resolution, animation, and open-ended revision rounds. Approving the camera and a clay draft first keeps the expensive stage from being repeated.
- What do I need to supply?
- A usable 3D model or drawings to build one from, a reference board showing the look you want, material specifications, and the output resolution. Rendering briefs without reference imagery are the ones that need three revision rounds.
- How many revisions should be included?
- Two rounds is standard: one after the clay draft and one on the final image. Anything beyond that is normally billed hourly, so agree the count before work starts.
