3D Visualisation
Lumion
With Lumion 3D rendering software, architectural rendering feels like an integral part of the design process, from the initial concept to the big presentation. Lumion breathes life into rendering, making the process simple and enjoyable from the moment you import your model until you render out a beautiful image, video or 360 panorama. Speed up design development with live, real-time rendering between Lumion and your CAD software with LiveSync. Bring exteriors, interiors, landscapes and urban projects to life with over 6,300 objects and 1,250 materials in the Content Library. Express beauty and emotion with over 60 atmospheric and cinematic effects.
Enscape
Enscape is a real-time visualization and virtual reality tool for architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) professionals. It integrates design and visualization workflows across all project phases, making it the easiest and fastest way to turn models into immersive 3D experiences. The real-time rendering plugin is compatible with Revit, SketchUp, Rhino, Archicad, and Vectorworks. It is used by renowned architecture firms from over 150 countries. Enscape empowers you to create lifelike design experiences, so you can experiment, share ideas, and envision better designs.
Sketchup
Sketch up is a 3D software that takes user-created 3D models and places them into fully-realized 3D environments or images. With 3D rendering programs, graphic designers and media developers can insert disparate objects and characters, imported from 3D modeling programs, into a graphically appropriate settling. It uses for different purposes like home or office buildings, gaming, product design, etc.
These programs can also have features such as lighting and texturing, which can add depth and realism to scenes. One software that is used by visual artists is Sketchup. The program enhances workflows across a variety of industries including architecture, engineering, construction, woodworking, interior design, film, and much more.
3Ds Max
Autodesk 3ds Max is a premium software used for 3D modeling and 3D animation noted for its long history in the industry, ubiquitous usage, extensive plug-in options, and relatively user-friendly workflow. In terms of usage, 3ds Max is pitched for visualization, game design, and animation. It has strong procedural modeling tools and is favored as a solid space within which to actually create the models, versus the animation and rigging aspect (which many prefer to do in Maya, another Autodesk product).
