Why This Architect Switched to D5 Render for Better Visuals?

舞台裏

Why switch to D5?

“Years ago when our company was just a start-up, I used offline rendering. As our business began to grow with an increasing number of projects and shortened delivery time, we were swamped with work and decided to turn to real time rendering software. As a visualizing enthusiast, I was on a lookout for something that takes the same amount of time but offers me a higher level of realism. D5 Render caught my attention at the right time. It has a powerful engine and develops at a rapid pace.

Believing in its potential, our office completely shifted to D5 when version 1.7 rolled out, which was about 2 years ago.”

What do you like about D5 Render?

“In every project, design and visualization go hand in hand. Settling the design and 3d rendering is always a process where we go back and forth. However, D5 Render managed to make this part easier, faster and in a more acceptable way.

D5 is actually quite designer-friendly, so we get to keep each phase of the projects internal: everything goes on within the team, making it easier and faster to communicate, adjust and deliver a project. It’s a win-win situation for us: visualizers have more time to adjust, and designers are given more freedom in designing.”

Why Animation?

“Renderd video is actually not included in the contract, but since rendering animation is so easy and accessible using D5, we ended up making videos additionally to post on our social media platforms.”

What did the clients say?

“Most of our commissioned works are residential, and we usually include everything from interior to architectural and landscape. D5 Render is able to produce not only the realistic effect, but also the suitable mood. Through the rendered images, we wish to extend our feelings and visions. Although it’s still frame we’re delivering, we like to bring life to the scene by adding dynamic assets from D5 Asset Library, for example, birds, trees and falling leaves. These animated assets always work like magic.”

“To our surprise, our clients seem to appreciate the works we presented with D5, and they can actually notice a better sense of space and realism in our visualization.”
