Ga West Retail
Traditional Retail Facade Visualization
Single-story white metal-clad retail building with standing seam metal roof, centered entry with pediment, G.A. West logo, and parking lot.
Project Overview
Every project has a story. For Ga West Retail, we told it across 3 exterior views — from the signature hero shot that anchors the branding down to the granular views that satisfy technical reviewers.

The Challenge
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.
Stakeholder alignment was part of the challenge. Multiple decision-makers had different priorities for what the renders should emphasise, and we had to find compositions that satisfied all of them without diluting any single perspective.
Our Approach
We shared work-in-progress renders with the retail developer at two key milestones: after initial composition lock and after material refinement. Both rounds stayed tight — targeted feedback, fast turnarounds.
We started where we always start: with the drawings. Every wall thickness, every material notation, every site boundary got translated into the 3D model before we touched a single texture or light.
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.
The Result
All 3 images were delivered on schedule within 2-3 weeks. The retail developer has used the package across their website, printed materials, and investor presentations.
