3D Rendering CGI rendering studio in London, United Kingdom

CGI lets you sell a building before it is built and show a refurbishment before the scaffolding goes up. We produce architectural and interior CGI that looks considered rather than computer made.

For London and UK developers, architects, interior designers and venues, including UK firms bidding for or marketing projects in the Gulf.

CREATVZ is a CGI rendering studio in the UK, working from London, for developers, architects, interior designers and venues. We produce architectural and interior CGI from your drawings to sell a scheme before it is built, with up to 3 revision rounds per full set. Send SketchUp or Revit 2024 files, or plans, PDFs, photos and measurements, and we quote within 48 hours.

CGI that looks like CGI.

Buyers and planning audiences have seen a lot of CGI, and they can spot the generic version: perfect blue skies, empty streets, plastic materials. It undermines trust in a scheme that may be very well designed.

We focus on credible light, materials and context. For UK schemes, that means honest British light and real streetscapes. For UK practices and developers working in Saudi Arabia or Bahrain, we render the local context, climate and culture properly, from facades to the people in the scene.

What UK clients use CGI for

  • Residential marketing suites
  • Planning and consultation imagery
  • Interior design presentations
  • Refurbishment before and afters
  • Stadium and venue sponsorship packs
  • Gulf project bids and marketing

What you get

You get exterior and interior CGIs, aerial views, 360 rotatables, before and after visuals and sponsorship mock-ups, delivered as JPEG and MP4 for marketing suites, websites, portals and print.

  1. Exterior Renders

    Still images of buildings and facades at the time of day and in the setting that sells the project, from your drawings or models, delivered as high resolution JPEG files.

  2. Interior Renders

    Interior scenes with furniture, materials and light chosen to show how the space will feel to live, work or stay in.

  3. Aerial & Masterplan Views

    Aerial and masterplan views that explain a whole development: plots, roads, landscaping, amenities and what is nearby.

  4. 360 Rotatables

    A 360 rotatable of the building or a key space, so buyers and committees can turn the view themselves on a website, tablet or sales screen.

  5. Before & After Visuals

    Before and after visuals that set a photo of the existing site or space beside the proposed design, for renovations, fit-outs and redevelopment.

  6. Sponsorship & Branding Mock-ups

    Mock-ups of sponsor branding, signage and naming rights on a stadium, venue, mall or event space, ready to drop into a sponsorship deck.

CGI rendering studio in London and the UK

UK schemes are judged from CGI by neighbours, funders and planners as much as by buyers.

In the UK a piece of CGI is rarely seen by one audience. A single exterior view might go to a planning officer, a local residents’ group, a funder, a letting agent and a purchaser. A new-build block, a loft conversion, a high-street refit or a hotel interior each need an image that is clear about what is proposed and does not oversell it. Good CGI is calm and accurate before it is dramatic.

Our London studio builds the model from your files: a Revit (.rvt) or SketchUp (.skp) model saved in the 2024 version, or plans, PDFs, photos and measurements when no model exists. Camera views are agreed first, a plain model is approved, and only then are materials, light and context added. We take briefs from London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Bristol, Edinburgh and the rest of the UK, remotely by video call, with files shared by link.

Practices can have the images under their own name. Where a scheme is also marketed in the Gulf, an Arabic-labelled set can be produced from the same model. Stills are delivered as JPEG, sized for planning boards, brochures, websites and social media. We use British English throughout, and the choice of viewpoints for anything going into a planning submission stays with you and your consultants.

This service suits developers and housebuilders, architects and interior designers, contractors, landlords and agents, and venue and sponsorship teams. Work is delivered with a partner studio. We quote within 48 hours of the brief, include up to three rounds of amends per full set, and show earlier work in a private walkthrough on request, since most of it is covered by confidentiality.

How UK teams use CGI rendering

  1. A small developer pre-selling flats

    The scheme is not on site yet and the agent needs images for the launch. We render the exterior, a living room and a bedroom from the architect’s model.

  2. A homeowner planning a rear extension

    The architect has the drawings and the family wants to see them in the garden. We show the extension from the garden and the street in daylight.

  3. A retailer refitting a high-street unit

    The landlord needs to approve the design. The retailer sends the plans and receives interior and shopfront views for sign-off.

Need to show it before it is built?

How it works

  1. Step 1: Brief and files

    Your SketchUp (.skp) or Revit (.rvt) model, 2024 version preferred, or CAD (DWG) and PDF drawings, with materials, brand guidelines and the views you need.

  2. Step 2: Camera and clay

    Camera angles and a plain model are shared first, so you approve the views before materials and light are added.

  3. Step 3: Render

    Materials, lighting, landscaping and people are added, and draft renders are reviewed against the design.

  4. Step 4: Finish and deliver

    Final retouching, then JPEG stills and MP4 files for rotatables. Revision rounds are included in every quote.

Questions

How much do CGI rendering services cost in the UK?

It depends on scope: number of views, interior or exterior, rotatables, model detail and the deadline. We quote each project on its own, so send drawings and a view list.

What files do you need?

Revit (.rvt) or SketchUp (.skp) models, saved in the 2024 version where possible, or DWG and PDF drawings, plus material schedules and references.

How long does a CGI project take?

It turns on views, model detail and rotatables. A full set typically takes 30 to 40 days, depending on scope, and a frozen design at the start is what keeps it on programme.

Can you produce verified views for planning?

Verified views need survey data and a specific method. If you need them, tell us early so we can confirm whether that scope is right for us before quoting.

Do you render projects in the Gulf for UK practices?

Yes. Our teams in Riyadh and Manama help set the local context, landscaping and people, so the CGI suits Saudi or Bahraini audiences.

Can you show a refurbishment before and after?

Yes. We match the CGI camera to your photograph of the existing building or interior, so the two images sit side by side for consultations, marketing or the client board.

Do you make sponsorship mock-ups for venues?

Yes. CGI of a stadium, arena or event space showing where a sponsor’s brand would sit, for commercial teams pitching naming rights and partnerships.

How many revisions are included?

Every quote includes revision rounds for camera views, draft renders and finals. A scheme change after the model is built is new scope, agreed before we continue.

Can we see work you have done?

Much of it sits under client confidentiality, so we share it in a private portfolio walkthrough, on video or in London.

Can the CGI show our proposed brick and window details?

Yes, if you send the specification or samples. Materials are modelled as you specify them.

Can you render daylight and evening views?

Yes. Day and dusk views are listed separately in the quote.

Can you create images for a hospitality fit-out?

Yes. Interior views for restaurants, hotels and bars, built from the plans and your finishes.

Can you add the surrounding street and neighbouring houses?

Yes, from the photos and site plan you send. We show context as an artist’s impression.

Do you work in British spelling and UK units?

Yes. Titles, labels and dimensions follow UK usage, with metric or imperial as you prefer.

Can you work for an architect without telling their client?

Yes. We can work as a white-label supplier under your name.

Tell us about the project you want rendered.

A short brief is enough: the drawings or files you have, the views, rotatables or mock-ups you need and the deadline. Large files can come as a Drive or WeTransfer link.
