Hgtv Renovation

Project Overview

We approached Hgtv Renovation knowing the private homeowner had a tight window and high expectations. 2 images needed to cover eye-level perspectives — and each one had to stand on its own.

HGTV renovation - Southern colonial with grand two-story columned portico, light blue stucco, symmetrical design, oval window detail, formal landscaping.

The Challenge

The timeline was compressed. The private homeowner had a launch date that wasn’t moving, which meant our production schedule had zero slack for extended revision cycles.

The design was still evolving when we started. We had to build a model flexible enough to absorb changes mid-stream without derailing the production schedule.

Our Approach

Post-production was restrained. We adjusted contrast, corrected any colour casts, and added subtle atmospheric effects — but the goal was always to enhance what was already there, not to paper over problems in the base render.

We leaned on physically-based rendering throughout. Every material — glass, stone, metal, timber — was defined by real-world optical properties. That’s what makes the difference between a render that looks ‘nice’ and one that looks true.

Camera positions were planned, not improvised. We mapped out eye-level angles based on the project’s strongest design moments, then refined framing through a series of grey-shaded test renders before committing to final production.

The Result

Production closed within 1-2 weeks. The hero image is now the signature visual for Hgtv Renovation, and the supporting gallery views have been deployed across the private homeowner’s marketing channels.
