Why & How
The Challenge & Our Approach
The Challenge
The Problem We Solve
Why This Matters
A Plan Does Not Show the Whole Place
Site plans are hard for buyers, lenders and planning bodies to read. An aerial view shows how buildings, roads, open space and neighbours fit together.
Ground-Level Views Miss the Site
Eye-level images answer how a front door feels, not how phases connect or how far amenities sit from the road.
Context Is Most of the Work
At aerial scale the image is mostly site. Terrain, roads, trees and neighbouring buildings need as much care as the building itself.
Our Approach
How We Work
Our Approach
Inputs
From Site Plan to Working Scene
We start from your site plan, drawings and 3D model, plus site photos or satellite imagery, then agree what the image needs to say.
- Site plan, elevations and model reviewed
- Materials, landscape and planting references collected
- Purpose confirmed: planning, sales or investor material
Camera
The Camera Decides What the Image Says
A high, steep view reads like a plan and suits masterplans. A lower oblique view feels like a photograph and shows facades. We agree height, direction and time of day before detailed work.
- Camera shared as a rough view first
- Sun direction checked against the facades that matter
- Day or dusk direction confirmed
Revisions
Two Rounds of Revisions
Two revision rounds are included, so feedback on materials, planting and details is handled inside the quoted price.
- Markups on the image or in a short call
- Changes tracked against your notes
- Extra rounds available at a pre-agreed rate

Investment Philosophy
Pricing
Renders From $199 Per Image
Price depends on site size, number of buildings, landscape detail and source files. You get a clear quote before any work begins.
Get a QuotePer-Image Pricing
Still renders start from $199 per image. A $99 test image is available if you want to judge quality first.
Scope-Matched
Large sites with many buildings and detailed context need more modelling than a single plot, and the quote reflects that.
Revisions Included
Two rounds of revisions are part of every quote.
Common Questions
What is an aerial render in architecture?
A photorealistic 3D image of a building, site or masterplan seen from above, usually from a bird's-eye or oblique angle. It shows layout, context, landscape and circulation in a way plans and ground-level images cannot.
How much do aerial renders cost?
Renders start from $199 per image. The final price depends on site size, number of buildings, landscape detail, surrounding context and revision rounds, and you get a quote before work begins.
What do you need from us to start an aerial view?
A site plan and, if you have one, a 3D model in CAD, Revit or SketchUp. Add elevations, a materials list, the landscape plan, site photos or satellite imagery, and a note on the camera direction and time of day you prefer.
Can one aerial view be used for planning and for sales?
Yes, the same view can support a planning or community presentation and a sales brochure. Tell us the purpose up front so the camera, lighting and level of detail suit the audience.
Can the model be reused for ground-level images or an animation?
Often yes, because the buildings and site are already built. Extra views or a flythrough are scoped separately, but reusing the scene reduces the work involved.
How do revisions work?
You receive a draft view and mark it up. Two rounds of revisions are included. Approving the camera early lets later rounds focus on materials, planting and details.
Which markets do you work with?
Architects and developers in the US, UK and Europe. Our working hours overlap with US and UK mornings, and we handle both metric and imperial drawings.
