Can I visualize unfinished or under construction buildings?

Yes. Upload a photo of the site or of the building under construction, a sketch, a plan or a screenshot of your 3D model, and describe how it will look when it is finished. Rendair creates a finished render from it. It is a common way to show clients a building before it is built.

Yes. Showing a building before it is finished is one of the most useful things you can do with Rendair.

Start from what you have

  • A photo of the building or the site: use Image to Render and describe the finished design.
  • A sketch or an elevation: use Sketch to Render or Elevation to Render.
  • A view of your 3D model: use Image to Render, or upload the model to 3D Model to Render.

Describe the finished look

Say what the building will look like when done: the facade materials, the windows, the landscaping and the light. For example, "completed timber facade, glass entrance, landscaped garden, late afternoon".

Tips

  • Choose a photo where the structure is visible and well lit.
  • Remove cranes, fences and equipment with Remove object if you do not want them in the image.
  • Explain what you want to keep. Rendair follows the structure in your photo.

Present the result

Save the render to a board and share it with your client or team as a view-only link.
