Archviz

Real-world scale architecture. Clean cameras. Believable materials. Delivery stills.

When to Use

• Interior/exterior architectural presentations
• Real-estate style stills and simple walkthroughs
• Material/lighting lookdev for spaces

Workflow

CAD/scale check → Greybox → Final modeling → Materials
  → Cameras → Lighting (HDRI + practicals) → Render → Comp

Scale & Modeling

• Millimeter–meter accuracy where specs exist
• Straight verticals; controlled bevels on visible edges
• Separate glass, frames, furniture collections

Cameras

• Verticals corrected (shift) for exteriors when needed
• 24–35mm interiors common; avoid extreme wide unless intentional
• Use camera-cinematography

Lighting

• HDRI for exteriors / window light
• Practical lamps as mesh lights
• Soft GI; avoid game-style single harsh key unless styled

Delivery

• High-res stills; optional depth/mist for comp
• compositing for exposure polish
• Keep layered EXR for revisions

Constraints

MUST DO

• Verify real-world scale early
• Lock cameras before heavy grade
• Keep glass/IOR plausible

MUST NOT DO

• Game lowpoly shortcuts on hero archviz plates
• Over-saturate materials
